Introduction

Located in the dynamic city of Houston, TX, Rivers Wilde is an enclave carved into a parcel of the most valuable and coveted land in all of South East Texas

The enclave is home to the two families that it’s naar, oil, and natural gas are how they made their fortune And with that bounty, they helped found the city of Houston

The Wildes are the new eoisie They built their wealth in restaurants, grocery stores and real estate

And they have made a fortune that casts the old money into the shade

In the 1980s, the oiland the Rivers found themselves hard up for cash With no other viable options, they sold part of their precious land to the usurpers they’d previously refused to even acknowledge

Seeds of resentment burrowed deep into the fertile soil of their dislike and grew tenacious roots Thirty years later, the rivalry continues Even though, now, no one remembers what started it and just why the blood between the families is so bad

Today in Rivers Wilde, a new generation is co to the helm of power in both families Will they put the past behind the families in Houston? Or will the sins of their fathers continue to cast a shadow over them?

I hope you enjoy finding out!
