Sad Secrets Hilliard James Hilliard

Ben Emlik was a handsome young man with many options before him-options which took him from college to the exciting world of New York modeling and escort services for wealthy women. His stunning looks and finely-sculpted body opened every door for him, but he could not escape the madness and the secrets hidden beneath the cover-boy veneer. Emlik House, his family home, was an immense mansion that virtually held its inhabitants prisoner and kept their shocking secrets within its walls. His mother was a Latin beauty who could neither reconcile nor control the insanity of her family. Myer Emlik, Ben's father, was a master of deception and manipulation; his Aunt Sovia, a psychic visionary who intervened with her spiritual communications; his sister, the flippant young woman, Camilla, scoffed at the bitter reality of their lives. To escape all of it, Ben's brother, Jon, became a priest with the hope of somehow obtaining salvation for all of their souls. Only the mysterious Aunt Tanya knew the extent of this family's voyage into sin and destruction-even she could not steer their course away from disaster.
