A desperate young woman’s bargain with a wealthy couple isnot what it seems in this gothic tale of big city dreams gone wrong from the #1New York Times bestselling author and literary phenomenon V.C. Andrews—whosebooks are now major Lifetime TV movies. The English countryside is beautiful, but for Emma Corey itcannot compare with the bright lights of New York City. Tired of performingonly in pubs and at church, she announces she’s moving to America—and herconservative father disowns her on the spot. Distraught but undeterred, Emma will become a Broadwaystar—or die trying. The largeness of the new city, her new friends, theboundless opportunities make everything shine with promise. However, New Yorkhas a way of chipping away at a newcomer’s resolve. First a robbery. Then alow-wage job. Then the realization that such a city attracts the young and thetalented—competitors all. Just when it seems like Emma might have to admit defeat andreturn to the UK, she is introduced to a peculiar couple: a wife that cannotbear children of her own, and a husband who would pay Emma to solve thatproblem. Emma’s father once told her, “Money is life.” But when Emmatrades one for the other and moves into the couple’s remote estate toparticipate in an elaborate ruse, there’s no telling what kind of life she’llhave once she’s taken the money.
