The Dark Side of Money

The Dark Side of Money by d. E. Rogers is a stylish, high-stakes thriller set in the ruthless world of New York fashion, where beauty, betrayal, and bloodlines collide.

Gloria Dean, the flawless matriarch of a powerful African American fashion empire, rules with an iron will—and someone wants her gone. After a shocking murder attempt leaves her in a coma, her family’s glittering empire teeters on collapse. What follows is an all-out war among her children, each clawing for control of the Gloria Dean Company, where power and profit trump loyalty and love.

Into the chaos steps Jasmine, the estranged eldest daughter and family outcast, unexpectedly thrust into leadership. Haunted by her past and battling old addictions, Jasmine faces not only the company’s scheming executives but also her cold, calculating siblings—who’ll do anything to take her down. With betrayal lurking behind every silk curtain and ambition dressed in designer labels, she must fight to protect her mother’s legacy before it’s devoured by greed.

Gritty, glamorous, and unrelenting, The Dark Side of Money rips open the polished seams of high fashion to expose the corruption, deceit, and deadly ambition beneath. It’s Dynasty meets Empire—a suspense-filled tale where family loyalty is as fragile as chiffon, and survival means keeping your heels high and your enemies closer.
