American Royalty: Book One (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781665714136)

Sixteen-year-old Tyler Alexander has just endured an unthinkable personal tragedy. After his mother dies from a heroin overdose, he must move in with his father and grandfather, two men he hates despite the national importance attached to the family name. Tyler's father, James, is the governor of Texas, heir to the family fortune, and current front-runner for the Presidency of the United States. His grandfather, Frank, is an oil tycoon responsible for the Alexander fortune.
Given the implications that could result from her death, James uses his inherited power to create a cover-up that creates a positive perception of him and his family. Everything is perfect-or so it seems. As threats loom, the illusion the Alexanders have masterfully shaped begins to slowly shatter. At risk of losing everything the family has worked for, all three men must come to terms with their pasts and their futures while attempting to win the White House without regard for the enduring consequences to not just their family but also the country.
In this political thriller, the Alexander family must do everything in their power to harbor their dark secrets and win the Presidency of the United States.
