1. FALSE GOD by C.W. Farnsworth
SYNOPSIS
Summer in the Hamptons is predictable. Lavish parties. Polo matches. Private yachts. Same people, different place. So the surprise arrival of Charles Marlborough causes an excited stir throughout the highest echelons of society. The upper crust he’s come to impress. Wealthy elites he has to impress.
Billionaire heiress Elizabeth (Lili) Kensington isn’t dazzled by Britain’s youngest duke. She’s glimpsed the imperiousness behind the charming facade of New York’s newest deity and resolved to stay far away. The only daughter and eldest child of American royalty, Lili is well-acquainted with unwavering attention. She’s used to fake flattery and whispers about her family’s immense wealth. Accustomed to men trying to cajole their way into her bed and her bank account. But her attempts to humble Charlie only make her more confused about his true character.
Each time their privileged worlds collide, Lili and Charlie’s perceptions of each other shift. They put on acts in public but stop performing when they’re alone. Motivations become murky. Feelings form. Secrets spill.
She swore she’d never fall for a false god. He never intended to fall at all. Even patricians can’t lay perfect plans …
