New York Times best-selling co-authors and best friends, Virginia DeBerry and Donna Grant, who collaborated on Gotta Keep on Tryin' and What Doesn't Kill You, are back with a story as big as New York City itself, following a wealthy, prominent family caught in a storm of sexual scandal, secrets, betrayal, and politics. DeBerry and Grant fans will not be disappointed with this look into the high rolling, no holds barred world of NYC real estate development. Before becoming co-authors, both women worked as plus size models, careers that led to the opportunity to launch Maxima, a fashion and lifestyle magazine for plus size women. When the publication of Maxima ceased, they began their book writing relationship which turned into the most successful and enduring writing collaboration in African American fiction.
