She’d never had a real home
So it had never been about “what to keep” in her life; she’d not experienced that luxury. Then Juliette Carlton got a call, one that said she’d inherited a fortune-and could she please claim it? Juliette didn’t know what to do. She was a down-on-her-luck Las Vegas card dealer with $38 in her bank account.
Had she hit the jackpot? Or was it just another loss?
At first it seemed the latter. The “fortune” was a dilapidated 140-year-old antebellum house that belonged to an uncle she barely remembered. Beneath layers of dust, every inch of the ancestral home was shrouded in secrets-secrets that would put in doubt everything Juliette ever thought she knew.
She would have to decide what to give away. But along the way, she found what to keep .
