Houston heiress Elizabeth Stanton lost nearly everything when a stunning betrayal by her ex-husband left her with only a fraction of the fortune her genteel Southern family had worked so hard for.

Now it's up to Elizabeth to decide if this is a deal with the devil, or the best decision of her life.
