Beautiful but insecure, ruthless yet vulnerable, Lara has struggled brutally to achieve it all-yet she still wants more. And in a dazzling global setting from London to New York, from Reno to Rome, she will find everything she has ever desired and won-her fortune, her fame, the man she loves-swiftly and shockingly imperiled.
