Cara meets the love of her life during law school. Mark is from wealth and privilege, and Cara is from a working-class family. After getting everything she ever wanted-wealth, power, influence and love-Cara discovers it all comes at a price. Cara faces challenges as she deals with the psychological damage caused by her mother; protects a younger sister (Hope) who does not see the dangers; and helps the man she loves (Mark) navigate a maze of governmental cover-up, global conspiracy, and an international drug trade. Cara struggles to do the right thing and not lose her moral compass in an ocean of immorality. "Because these folks are rolling like rich white folks, and we both know that there is a difference between rich black folks and rich white folks, and Mark's family seems to have rich white folks money."
