Introducing the Richest Family in America (eBook, ePUB)

Beschreibung

High in the hills above fashionable Montecito, California, slipping in and out of their mansions on Swizzle Stick Road, a ridiculously wealthy family is under siege. A crooked lawyer, a beautiful Chinese pro golfer, and a celebrity-mad plastic surgeon conspire to convince a wealthy family's patriarch to move his factories from Cleveland to China. But the youngest son, a gay man, gets wind of the conspiracy and fights like a mad dog to stop it. What follows is a brutally funny comedy of grandiose intentions, half-baked revenge, heroic upper crust foolishness, and a passionate cross-cultural romance. David Drum's Introducing the Richest Family in America runs the gauntlet of greed, betrayal and desire as America's richest family teeters precariously on the edge of dissolution and struggles to right itself again. Some comments: "I loved your daffy characters, they were totally refreshing. Gave me some of the best laughs I had all winter." --Deb Fowler, Amazon Top 100 Reviewer "Glamorous locales and timely subject matter... engaging and fun. I found it hard to put down." --Kavita Daswani, author of The Village Bride of Beverly Hills "I do like to read books every now and then that sound like Benny Hill is dashing thorough the pages ahead of me and this one fit the bill perfectly...." --Feathered Quill Reviews "Introducing the Richest Family in America is a riveting read and a solidly recommended one." --Midwest Book Review
