A gripping contemporary young adult drama set against the glittering backdrop of Las Vegas.
Rory Walsh's world shatters the day his mother dies. But while he’s still in shock from her death, his alcoholic aunt swoops in, not out of love, but driven by greed; she wants to get her hands on the trust his mother left him.
But all is not lost: a stranger, the father Rory never knew, appears.
Ripped from the rough streets of Chicago, from everything familiar—his home, MMA gym, his entire life—Rory is thrust into an exclusive gated community in Summerlin, Nevada (outside Las Vegas), where mansions tower like monuments to wealth and secrets lurk behind every perfectly manicured lawn. His new home? A sprawling estate ten times the size of his old home. His new reality? A world of privilege he never asked for and doesn't know how to navigate.
But money can't buy happiness or family.
Rory’s neighbors are worried about their status. They want nothing to do with Rory’s father because of his business, but are afraid of upsetting him because they’re indebted to him. The kids his age all want to use him in some way because of his family’s wealth and power. His glamorous stepmother looks like she stepped off a movie screen, inspiring jealousy in The Valley wives. And his stepsister? She's made one thing crystal clear from the moment they met: she views him with disdain.
Caught between a painful past and an uncertain future, Rory must find his place in a glittering world that may be just as dangerous as the one he left behind. Can he survive the secrets, lies, and drama that threaten to consume him? Or will the price of his new life be more than he's willing to pay?
Warning: For a Mature Audience
Themes of resilience, family drama, and the search for belonging drive this emotional story. Perfect for fans of contemporary young adult fiction, domestic drama, and novels about survival, identity, and second chances.
