Love ... career ... family conflicts ... can there be peace?

Young, smart, on top of his career as an IT consultant, Mason Adamov should have had it all. A turbulent relationship with his father almost ended everything.

A fated meeting with Leola Lanaro got him wondering if he had at last met the right one. "About time you married," his mom kept telling him. Hopelessly smitten, Mason ignored warning signs that Leola's family wanted more for her than marry a rich man. They sought to control him, as did his mother, in the same way they controlled their daughter.

Mason found himself at a cusp: Love Leola on her parents' terms, or end what might be a lifetime of happiness ... provided Leola chose life with him and decided to finally cast off her parents' shackles.
