Sometimes Paradise — Judith Green

Enter the inner circle of an exclusive world of privilege and wealth. Enter the glittering society of the ultra-rich who shuttle between New York and the capitals of Europe, from the grand mansions of Palm Beach to the sprawling hunt-country estates of Virginia. Enter a turbulent story of a young woman who dreams of finding a place in this dazzling world--and then dares to conquer it...

From a lonely, hard-working existence, beautiful Loretta Worship is swept into a life of luxury when she marries older, sophisticated multi-millionaire Chukker Dunbar. Eagerly, she learns from Chukker how to "behave rich" as he initiates her into the posh pleasures of Palm Beach high society. But instead of open arms, Loretta is greeted with envy, suspicion--even hostility. The old guard refuses to accept this Cinderella outsider, and a vicious clot is unleashed to destroy her by exposing the secrets of her past. But everyone underestimates Loretta. For Loretta will dare to shake the smug, pampered town to its roots...to defy the powerful guardians of Palm Beach's treasured exclusivity... to triumph where no outsider has ever triumphed before....
