Here’s the set-up for Ruth Harris’ Love and Money, just 99 Cents on Kindle:
Rich girl and poor girl.
Celebrity and outcast.
Sisters and strangers.
Set in motion by a long-ago devastating betrayal, LOVE AND MONEY concludes in the “if you’ve got it, flaunt it” 1980s, a decade that saw the peaceful conclusion of the Cold War, the spectacular rise–and fall–of the rich and famous and set the stage for the century’s end.
Deedee Dahlen and Lana Bantry share a father but not an inheritance, a lover but not a commitment. Deedee, born with a silver spoon, is adored and indulged–until her world turns upside down. Lana, the child of a brief encounter, is humiliated and rejected–until she forces the world to pay attention. They do not know of each other’s existence and might never have met until their worlds collide when fate–and murder–bring them face to face.
