Stiletto Mafia — Terry J. Benton

Six years have passed since the events of Prelude to an Empire-six years since Russell Wright got the phone call that changed "everything."
Russell's story continues in "Stiletto Mafia," the follow-up to "Prelude to an Empire." Now a little older and wiser, Russell has filled the void his biological family left with the love and admiration of his new family-a very special group of women that he calls the "Stiletto Mafia." Things heat up quickly for Russell and the Stiletto Mafia when ghosts from his past begin to show up unexpectedly and set off a chain of events that turn Russell's life upside-down.
In "Stiletto Mafia," Russell is joined by a cast of all new and unforgettable characters-as well as some familiar faces from previous years-as he continues to navigate the ups and downs of life.
""This is his business, this is his empire, and these girls are his family. They are the Stiletto Mafia." "
