LEGACY has all the ingredients for a super movie.

Erika St. James is shocked when her adopted father, Carlton Lipton-Graves, reveals he has a black grandson named Michael. After the reading of the will, Erika learns they are to share Carlton’s wealth, if they are willing to work and live at the estate together for one year. If they fail to comply, all will go to a contingent beneficiary named Frank Mason, a psychotic killer. In the mountains of Maryland, Erika finds Michael living a hermit’s life. He resents the beautiful young black woman who invades his world with the shocking news his grandfather had been a wealthy white entrepreneur. Adding to the dilemma, she informs him the other stipulations of Carlton’s will. But it’s Carlton’s album filled with his pictures that causes Michael to confront his mother. Learning the truth, he follows Erika to Philadelphia. Little does he realize Frank is planning his escape and he’s at the top of his revenge list. LEGACY has all the ingredients for a super movie. The lives of a psychotic killer and two emotionally scarred protagonists are changed by a dead man’s will. The author adds large dashes of sensuality, then fans flames of desire until they ignite into fires of passion. The plot entrapped me from the first page and held me until the last word. LEGACY is like a roller coaster ride that left me breathless.
