For fans of HBO's The Gilded Age, explore the dazzling world of
America's 19th century elite in this lush series of sparkling,
page-turning love stories...
New York City's Gilded Age shines as bright as the power-wielding men
of the Knickerbocker Club. And one pragmatic industrialist is about to
learn that a man may make his own destiny, but love is a matter of
fortune . . .
Born into one of New York's most respected families, William Sloane is a
railroad baron who has all the right friends in all the right places.
But no matter how much success he achieves, he always wants more. Having
secured his place atop the city's highest echelons of society, he's now
setting his sights on a political run. Nothing can distract him from his
next pursuit--except, perhaps, the enchanting con artist he never saw
coming . . .
Ava Jones has eked out a living the only way she knows how. As "Madame
Zolikoff," she hoodwinks gullible audiences into believing she can
communicate with the spirit world. But her carefully crafted persona is
nearly destroyed when Will Sloane walks into her life--and lays bare her
latest scheme. The charlatan is certain she can seduce the handsome
millionaire into keeping her secret and using her skills for his
campaign--unless he's the one who's already put a spell on her . . .
