Morgan Nelson, a vice president of a Fortune 500 company, and Dakota Cantrell, a Wall Street trader, are successful African American women in male-dominated careers. As accomplished, fashionable, and talented as they are, they are still not a part of the old New York money crowd. When they meet the flamboyant Blake St. James, they are immediately impressed by his style and charisma. As their friendship grows, Blake proposes a business partnership with Morgan. While she works to develop a business plan and Blake schmoozes with potential clients, they encounter some financial stumbling blocks. Morgan willingly incurs expenses on behalf of the budding business, but Blake claims that family problems are stalling the receipt of his inheritance. In this consistently compelling story, the increasing debt forces her to challenge Blake for an explanation and repayment of his share of the expenses. Blake's dishonesty and hidden agenda threaten to undermine the hard work and the successes that Morgan and Dakota have accomplished. Morgan's growing suspicions compel her to take action and give Blake a healthy dose of his own medicine. |
