Baron Bell, a prominent and highly respected attorney in
DC, is brokering babies using surrogate mothers. The
dirty dealings come when the surrogate moms decide they
want their babies back, and then adopt them to some other
couple. The original parents are out one-hundred-thousand
dollars, plus medical and miscellaneous expenses for the
surrogate. There isn't a dollar amount for the heartbreak
involved in giving up their children.
Attorney Lizzie Fox has accepted President Martine Connors
offer to work at the White House, but Lizzie will give this
a six-month's trial and refuses to accept any payment.
The attorney also reminds Martine that the vigilantes are
still waiting for their exoneration and pardon in exchange
for helping Martine get elected, and they are getting very
impatient.
All hell breaks loose when our ladies, and their gentlemen,
go after Baron Bell and his co-conspirator, Attorney Adel
Newsom, a Lizzie Fox wannabe. And, while they are
exposing the bad people, the ladies give the White House
security another "black eye".
Fun, fun, fun -- every one of the books in this series
outdoes its predecessor. In DEADLY DEALS there is a long
awaited wedding, and Annie and Isabelle are looking for
their Mr. Right. Although Fern Michaels' characters are
sometimes larger than life, her story lines are in our
daily newspapers. That is just one of the things that
make her fans eagerly await their next "fix".
After years of trying to become pregnant without success,
Rachel Dawson and her husband Thomas felt their dreams had
finally come true the day they brought home their newly
adopted twin babies. Though the lawyer Baron Bell who
arranged for the surrogate mother charged a hefty six-figure
fee, one glance into the eyes of their precious children
told them it was all worth it. Until the birth mother
reappeared, first demanding more money, then the twins
themselves. Suddenly Baron Bell was nowhere to be found, and
the Dawsons were once again childless, heartbroken and
nearly destitute.
When the case finds its way to the
offices of high-profile attorney Lizzie Fox, she can’t wait
to take down the so-called “Mr. Wonderful.” And she knows
she’ll have all the help she needs as it’s just the kind of
crime that really gets the Sisterhood’s adrenalin flowing.
Once they get their hands on the perpetrators there will be
hell to pay, and it will cost a lot more than cold, hard cash.
