Fanny Thornton, the proud matriarch of the Thornton dynasty, will do anything for her family. Her four children, now grown, mean everything to her, as does Babylon, the most dazzling casino in Las Vegas and the Thorntons' crowning achievement. But her children have dispersed across the globe, and so she chooses Jeff, the illegitimate son of her deceased husband, to run the casino.
But Jeff has plans of his own, and soon devises a scheme to turn Fanny's four children against her. As the siblings vie for their rightful heritage, deceit, distrust, and thwarted dreams of power threaten to divide the Thorntons once and for all.

"Loved the book and the whole series. Kept my interest thru out all three books. Great book on family, loyalty, betrayal, trust. Fern Michaels make. The characters seem like real people and so believable."

" Didn't finish - couldn't get into it "
— Jill, 9/1/2013" A three book series. A MUST read. "
— Julie, 3/31/2013" Didn't like it at all. It was very tiresome and silly. I didn't even finish this one. "
— Heather, 3/21/2013" I enjoyed this third book even more than the second one in the series. This story definitely kept my attention throughout the whole story - I didn't want it to end. Would recommend. "
— Tina, 7/3/2012" This book is the fitting end to a fantastic series. "
— Melissa, 12/26/2011" It would have got a 5 but the epilogue really didn't do it for me. The rest of the book was great, I just didn't find the epilogue at all fitting with the rest of the plot. "
— Holly, 3/15/2011" Started off a little slow-had too many characters to piece together. Once that was accomplished the story flew by. "
— Carla, 8/20/2010" Enjoyed this one much more than the 2nd. Looking forward to reading the Kentucky series to finish out the Coleman story lines. "
— Carrie, 7/13/2010" A bit pedantic...forced myself to finish it as it was a trilogy. Less and less believable as the story went on. "
— Leone, 12/2/2009" Enjoyed this one much more than the 2nd. Looking forward to reading the Kentucky series to finish out the Coleman story lines. "
