Paisley Parks is the HBIC. She navigates dating, fashion, and family with enviable grace—all while running an underground empire.
“Sometimes you get to pick family while other times family is picked for you. Either way, when it comes to being dealt a bad hand with family, you better figure out how to win with it.”
That’s the motto, rule, and law of each branch of Paisley Parks’ family, better known as The Cousins. Paisley doesn’t know how, at forty years old, she became the head cousin in charge. Loving the power she inherits from running the various branches of her family tree, as well as the prospective business branches that make up their wealth, Miss Paisley Parks steps into the role with designer shoes. Keeping a family strong, intact, and in line means every now and again, Paisley has to kick butt with those designer shoes.
Paisley finds herself having to wield her power of manipulation to keep the worker bee cousins—like Keyokee, who desires fame over the fortune the cousins are building—to stick to the family’s standard operating procedures. Not to mention navigating when to yield to the antics of play-cousin Angel, which could expose their high-revenue systems, strategies, and schemes.
Paisley wears many hats, figuratively and literally, to match the shoes she’s stepping all over the men who are just dying to date her and her cousins. And unfortunately for the men, but fortunately for Paisley and her family’s businesses, they do.
Book 1 of the Dating to Die series is just the first piece of the puzzle needed to put together the portrait of a family that brings new meaning to generational wealth. Paisley Parks helps to brilliantly execute a blueprint that ensures her entire family eats. Even if it sometimes makes it hard for her to sleep at night.
