UNGODLY RICH

Katharine McGee

A novel

The lavish, epic fun of CRAZY RICH ASIANS meets the speculative worldbuilding of McGee's own American Royals series in this soapy, romantic, multi-POV family drama.
Fleeing the fallout of a failed relationship, Julia was building a new life for herself in New Zealand when she met Harry Adams. Adventurous, good-looking, and down-to-earth, he seemed too good to be true, but two years in, Julia and Harry are inseparable. Until a chance encounter at a hotel bar threatens their happy ending.

Julia learns that Harry is actually Harry Ellene, son of one of the world's richest families - exactly the kind of people she had been running from when they first met. Upset by Harry's lie, but still madly in love, Julia accompanies Harry to his family's annual reunion on their private island in the Aegean Sea. She's determined to find out whether Harry is still the man she fell for. Little does Julia know, she's up against more than wealth and privilege - the Ellenes are actually Greek Gods.

It's no secret the Gods love to meddle - and when it comes to Julia, Harry's divine relatives each have their own agenda: Harry's mother, Hera, will do anything to protect her own. Harry's - or rather Ares's - sister-in-law Aphrodite has a deeply personal reason for hating Julia, and tasks Hermes, keeper of family secrets, with digging up dirt. Meanwhile, Hades, who's spent years trying to upend Zeus's power, finally sees an opportunity to strike.

Set against a globe-trotting backdrop that spans New York's exclusive private clubs, the wilds of New Zealand, and the snow-draped estates of the Alps, UNGODLY RICH is a story of love, revenge, secrets, sex, and the most ancient motivator of all: family.

Katharine McGee is the New York Times bestselling author of the American Royals series, the Thousandth Floor trilogy, and A Queen's Game. She studied English and French literature at Princeton and has an MBA from Stanford.
