Galilee

Amy Pallenberg never dreamed that she would ever meet -let alone marry-Mitchell Geary, the most eligilble bachelor in America. As wealthy as the Rockefellers and as glamorous as the Kennedys, his family has been a powerful American presence since the Civil War. But behind the facade, the family hides some sinister secrets, and as Amy begins to unravel them, her life soon becomes stranger than she ever dreamed.aThe Gearys are at war with the Barbarossas-a clan whose origins lie in myth, and whose far reaching influences are felt not in Washington or wall Street, but in the deep, sensual exchanges of flesh and soul. And when Galilee Barbarossa and Amy unexpectantly fall in love, the hostilities that the two families have kept in check for generations finally erupt in all their unholy glory.
