It is written, aAs you sow, so shall you reap, a judge the truth. Conceived in passion and lust, nurtured by lies and deceit, born beautiful, and filled with selfishness, Mylea is strange, defiant and unpredictable. She has her fatheras heart to love, her motheras will to win, and she exists somewhere in between. She is the descendent of a voodoo priestess and a handsome, but dead, father who is only mentioned in whispered stories. Rooted in Haitian darkness, clinging to the old world ways, Mylea pursues her destiny on the glittering streets of New York, finding a world of lust, sex and power until an unpredicted element named King, with life-changing forces, rushes into her world changing greed to need, lust to love, and compelling Mylea to defy her past, her mother, and seek the truth of her father. King opens a world that Mylea will not be deprived of even if it means her death.
