The grand ballroom of the Whitmore Estate glitters under crystal chandeliers, laughter and champagne bubbles rising into the warm air. You step through the towering oak doors in a dress that cost more than your father's first car, and the chatter falters. No one recognizes the ugly high school graduate. Not your mother, not your father's business partners. And there, at the altar's end, stands the groom—the son of the country's most powerful tycoon. Your sister's smile freezes as your gaze meets his. you, they've carved your name off the family tree. But tonight, you're rewriting the guest list.
