The House of Sin and Splendor so named by triple threat entertainer Betsy Bellweather a vaudeville sensation who became a popular silent film star; one who not only made the successful transition to talkies but dominated them, becoming the top money-maker for famous film producer Edric Mazewell owner of her sumptuous mansion home. The star vanished without trace immediately following one of her hedonistic parties notorious among Hollywood insiders after a particularly reprehensible rape including a murder and suicide. Once Betsy's secret life was revealed her family friendly image was ruined along with her career. The mansion already possessed an unsavory history stemming from the 1800's. A brutal Madam operated a high-end bordello with a stable of young women all under twenty years of age; many of whom were kidnapped or runaways. Their job was to service prominent men in all ways imaginable, sometimes at the cost of their lives. Film producer Edric Mazewell often bragged of joyfully turning from a boy into a man within its walls. Betsy loved the mansion and eagerly became its tenant until her disappearance. Fast forward to 1980 a blue collar couple Arlene and Wade Rawlerson win their state's first lotto jackpot ever. The couple moves to Los Angeles to fulfill a fantasy of inhabiting a lavish abode once belonging to a movie star. To their dismay, they discover that what is considered rich back home is only modestly well-to-do there. Impressed by its colorful history they purchase the Mazewell mansion now in ruins with the intent to restore it to its former glory. The couple intends to flip it, making a financial windfall enabling them to enjoy the Hollywood lifestyle they had first envisioned. However the mansion is home to spirits unable to find peace. And Arlene, the wife brings her own as well. Eventually, Arlene comes to accept and embrace her long suppressed gift of clairvoyance.

As important as it is entertaining, this is a must-read for anyone who knows that independent thought trumps fitting in. One of my favorite reads of the year." --Christina Dalcher, bestselling author of Vox "Schuren beautifully captures the breathlessness of both first love, and first rebellion, in this engrossing, timely book. Part page-turning drama, part romance, the novel is above all an exploration of the ways repression can damage the soul--and what it takes to rise above it." --Jennifer Donaldson, critically acclaimed author of Lies You Never Told Me "Compulsively readable." --BCCB "Well written." --SLJ

Brealyn Mia Winters... Something instead of nothing, friends... That's what he said. The blank walls within that bland box he placed us in is maddening. When I'm near him it sure feels like a lot more than just a friendly interlude. In theory, walking away from Brogan Creed seems like the smart thing to do. The warning signs are there. I should be put off, but I'm so far from that resolve. My mind refuses that conclusion. My place in this world involves this man. That much I'm sure of. His key role in my life is not that of a friend either. Weirdly enough, he's always in sync with my thoughts. My inner secrets don't even feel as though they belong to me anymore. When I'm alone I sense him. I feel him all around me. I can even smell him. My mental stability is hanging on by a thin thread. Brogan believes that some kind of a curse hangs over his head. Giving in to what we both want will somehow damn me. What he fails to understand is that without him, I feel like a plague is slowly migrating its way viciously throughout my bloodstream. He's not protecting me, no. He's only contributing to the source of my pain. Prolonging it would be a more accurate assessment too. Without effort, the Wallstreet God owns me. Body, heart, and soul. Nothing will ever change that. Brogan Malic Creed... That's her future... DEATH. Of course, my twisted brother's words are my psyches go to anytime I get near her. Always from a distance. Not within or out of arm's length, a guarded guide. A fine balance of need versus necessity. Silently stealing her mind mysteries and lurking in the dark shadows to be closer to her is my new way of life now. My senses soar with distrust mixed with disgust for my shared DNA. But becoming the boardroom boss was not an achievement reached by trusting those enemies that gather at the round table, oh no. My worries are not consumed with that of the family tree anyway. There's only one flaw to the overall plan here. Brealyn Winters is not own by no one, no-no... She holds the power. Make no mistake in the fact that I am irrevocably held captive by a delicate, untouchable, and forbidden butterfly. One that I intend on protecting.

Eureen, Tracey, Deja, and Jasmine are all looking for relationships that are based on strong moral values—despite their own less than moral lifestyles. Faithfully married but severely sexually frustrated, Eureen would do anything to catch her husband's eye again and reignite bedroom flames. She can't remember the last time they had sex, but when her husband suddenly passes away, she quickly finds a way to make up for lost time. A teasingly tight skirt and an extra wiggle is all Deja needs to stop Garnell's eyes from roaming to various single women in her church and focus his attention on her. In her mind, his skill level between the sheets far outweighs his criminal past. Corporate executive Jasmine is determined to turn her unemployed mama's boy of a husband into a real man, if her mother-in-law Cyreese doesn't destroy their marriage first. Tracey vows that nobody will enjoy the pleasures of her body again until she says "I do." Well, at least nobody will know about it. On their quest for love, these women will find out that sin comes with a price. Is it one they can afford?
