Tainted Heritage (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781683489870)

Tainted Heritage is a tale of romance and suspense.
Norwegian Supermodel, Lisette falls head over heels for self- made billionaire playboy Tony McGregor. He sweeps her off her feet with grand extravagant gestures and his sexy charm. But behind his seemingly self- assured and respectable exterior, dark secrets are lurking.
After a fall out, Lisette learns about his less than perfect childhood as a member of notorious New York Mob family, the Sciolottis. Tony vehemently denies having anything to do with the Family's black market dealings. His uncles, Sal and Vittorio operate from a strip club called "Cherry Juice" in Hell's Kitchen, and their sinister and sordid reality is in stark contrast to Lisette's and Tony's glamourous charmed life. Tony is willing to go to any length to protect Lisette from his Mob relatives. The only one he lets her meet is his mother, Luisa. He believes that she has nothing to do with her brothers' business dealings.
True as that may be, Luisa is a rogue mobster working under the radar to wreak havoc and instigate gang wars between the New York Mob Family and the New Jersey Family while pretending to be a good guy.
In this powerful story rich in characters and dialog, nobody is who they say they are and everybody seems to have their own secret agenda.
Clingy ex- girlfriends and mysterious late night phone calls make Lisette wonder if her sweet romance is for real. Can she trust Tony? Is it true as he reassures her, that he has given up his womanizing ways? One late night when he thinks she's asleep, she follows him after he gets a suspicious call and leaves the house.
Her horrible discovery will devastate her and force her on the run for her life. She can trust no one, not even the FBI, and definitely not the love of her life, Tony. In the end there is only one person she can count on to save her, herself.
