#1 - So Close
#1 - So Close
Widower Kane Black remains ruinously married to his late wife, Lily. Grief has hollowed him, until he sees a woman with his wife's inimitable beauty on Manhattan's streets. He whisks her up to his towering penthouse, where Lily's memory is a possessive, beguiling force.

Aliyah, Kane's mother, deals in science. "Lily" has dangerous control over Kane, and there can be only one queen on this throne, while Amy, Kane's sister-in-law, has been bloodied by betrayal, and now intends to claim what she's owed. Three women circle the man who unquestioningly accepts the return of his beloved long-dead wife. He's happier than ever, and he'll do anything to stay that way...
#2 - Too Far
#2 - Too Far
Lily Black was presumed dead for years. Now she's returned to the unquestioning arms of her loving husband, Kane. Where she's been is a mystery, but the deadly danger she's brought with her is manifest to all.

Aliyah, Kane's mother, has worked hard to position herself in power. No one escapes her bitter ambition, not her children and certainly not a woman who may not be who she claims.

Amy, Kane's sister-in-law, has been a pawn throughout the dangerous games the family plays. She's beginning to grasp the rules, though, and won't stop until all the pieces on the board have toppled.
