Los Angeles-based cosmetics tycoon Steven Chase has come a long way from his humble beginnings. Steven's family, including socialite wife, Janet, and four grown children, live a life of privilege in exclusive View Park. But when Steven wants to expand his empire by adding a chain of hair salons, one woman stands in his way. Once Steven realizes he can't seduce her with money, he tries a different approach: his handsome attorney son, Carter. . .
Meanwhile, spoiled debutante Haley Chase is busy getting into high-profile trouble on her lover's yacht, pediatrician Leigh Chase is determined to start a free clinic—against her parents' wishes—and Michael Chase is busy doing Daddy's dirty work. His only soft spot is for his wife, Kimberly, who has her own ambitions—plans that may one day shake the very foundations of the Chase dynasty—and change their view from the top forever. . .

Booklist
July 1, 2006
View Park is a mostly African American suburb of Los Angeles, and the Chase mansion is the largest home in the community. Chase Beauty, a Fortune 500 cosmetic company for women of color, is owned by founder and CEO Steven Chase. He grew up poor, put himself through college, and is a tough businessman and father. His wife, Janet, grew up wealthy in New York and is the perfect companion, mother, philanthropist, and head of the Chase Foundation. Their sons, Carter and Michael, and daughters, Leigh and Haley, are each accomplished in their own right, even when it proves disastrous. When Leigh returns from a year in Africa, the Chase celebration is cut short because Haley witnesses a shooting while boating with a married senator. Police Chief Jackson's son, Sean, is assigned to protect Haley, and daughter Avery becomes a target for takeover of her salons, Essentials. Sean and Avery soon find themselves swept up in the family chaos. The Chases' disregard for others puts everyone in danger and forever changes the family bond.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2006, American Library Association.)
