Clare Goddard had little money to spare on lottery tickets. But she bought one anyway, spoiling herself with the thought of 'what if?' The next day she won sixty million dollars. For Claire and her teenage daughter Emma it means every fantasy fulfilled. Designer clothes, expensive new cars, exotic holidays, a lavish new home, they can have anything they want - and more. And the 'more' comes in a chance encounter with Quentin Eiger and his dashing son Brix. The wealthy and sophisticated president of a cosmetics empire, Quentin helps ease Claire into a life of luxury. And Brix introduces the beautiful and besotted Emma into love - and the life of a top-class model. But if the rich are different, they can also be dangerous. For the men in the lives of Claire and Emma are about to jeopardize something far more valuable than money: their friendship, their security - and even their lives ...
