Circa 1979 (Metamorphosis, #1) / Metamorphosis (ePub)

"Muthaf***a, this is my house now! And you need me a hell of a lot more than I need you."

Journey back to the discos of 1979 where budding actress, Roberta Césaire, claws for her life. Young, gifted, and headstrong, she refuses her parents' demands to return to high society New York. That is, until her family's enemies pay a visit, and blackmail her with the Césaire family's most savage secret.

Even with her life and livelihood in a chokehold, Bertie rejects philanderer, Lionel Middleton. But the tech visionary with the silver tongue is a walking Slow Screw who ignites Bertie's imagination. Flush with Manhattan money, the two heirs take on a gritty, near-bankrupt New York that's known for eating its young.

Yet, too many hot-blooded nights, too many free-wheeling bets, drive them to a point of no return, where the ultimate betrayal can never be undone.

Lionel's wife and mother to his sons is finished trading one prison for another. But in Bertie's haste to leave the suffocating walls of House Middleton, a game-changer intercepts her, possibly even transforming her life. Now, as Bertie rolls the dice, her next move could very well be her last.

Go back in time to Circa 1979. In an era when women struggle to break barriers, Roberta Césaire crashes through with a sledgehammer. She is every woman in her own Metamorphosis as she evolves into the Mrs. Roberta Middleton. With her love of fast-paced storytelling and historic research, Lula White returns to Sag Harbor. Though this story can be read alone, readers who have never experienced the stories of Roberta's sons in Explore Men of the Hamptons would benefit from reading Explore You or Drink You as a primer.
