IN WHICH -

     Valeria Rockefeller is no stranger to luxury - fancy dinner parties, obnoxiously expensive vehicles, obtaining anything with a snap of her fingers -, so it came to no surprise when she was mentioned in one of the richest American men's will.

     With admirable elegance and curiosity, she follows the Hawthorne siblings (and an outsider; a girl) in their foolish adventures which they were positive were clues to their grandfather's last game, created before his passing.

     Old feelings resurface, hidden secrets are revealed, and more lives are in danger than not - what will happen when the six young adults discover the truth? Was the old man insane in the mind, or was he only trying to prove a point before his last breath?

EXPENSIVE GAMBLES

A book by mmenamenaa

"My grandfather always told me not to rush into things;
said that's how most successful men ended up with
untied ends and more regrets to count."

"Am I one of your regrets?"

"No, I don't believe you to be."

"You've become so damaged that when someone tries to give you what you deserve, you have no idea how to respond." He says taking a step closer to me. I frown. "So, it's my fault? That I'm to blame for being damaged?" "No, it's not your fault at all, but it is your fault for believing you don't deserve better. That you don't deserve to be happy." Nathan looks away from my eyes, inhaling. "Maybe the little things that you consider your weakness are actually the things that people treasure most about you. Maybe you hate that you care too much...or that you wear your heart on your sleeve. But seriously, some people think that's the best damn thing about you. We all have different little things that make up who we are, we don't need to change those things, but we can choose who we share them with." "What are you saying?" Now so close to me, he places his palm on my cheek, and whispers. "You're treasure, Madison...I hope you realize that." ________ Nathan Lane a Billionaire heartthrob who has everything in his life.

The Inheritances Game (Jameson Hawthorne)

113 parts Complete

Catalina Grace Powell is best friends with the Hawthorne family but she's the closest to Jameson Hawthorne. She has lived with them forever, what happens when a random girl inherits a bunch of money from the one and only Tobias Hawthorne? I'm not good at summaries hopefully the book is better than this summary. It is a friend to Lover trope but like Inheritance Game!! I don't see many Jameson stories and yes I totally ship Avery with him but I want some stories with the character falling in love. So here it is!!! Also, Avery will either date Grayson or just be single we'll see where it goes. Also very staggered uploads I upload random snippets at a time for this book because I really need to think about it before I upload how to incorporate Catalina into this complex storyline.
