THE FLASH OF DIAMONDS BLINDED THEM TO LOVE In an exclusive lounge on the Las Vegas strip, a woman called Diamond lived a charade of power and money. Raised in poverty, she had fled her backwater roots seeking glamor and wealth, and entered the world of her dreams, only to discover it was all as fake as her name. Trapped by her own illusions, Diamond searched for an escape, but her fate rested in the hands of three driven men: John Colucciana--The mafioso wanted to control Diamond body and soul, and would destroy her if he couldn't. Dave Alonzo--Rebuilding his life after his career crashed, the singer would give Diamond the love she always wanted--if he wasn't killed first. Mark Johnson--A federal agent obsessed with sending Colucciana to prison, he would risk anything to stop his enemy, including Diamond's love--and life.
