Alexander Whitmore

Alex Whitmore is a powerful casino and criminal empire owner in 1980s New York City. Wealthy, powerful, charismatic, and accustomed to absolute control, his impeccable manners and charm conceal a dangerous man with a strong character and his own rules. Valerie Bennett is his lover, a beautiful, intelligent, sharp-tongued, and independent woman. She enjoys a life of luxury with Alex, but doesn't allow his power to dictate her every move. Their relationship is a passionate affair, full of luxury, temptation, jealousy, and a play of personalities. Alex is madly attached to Valerie, though he rarely expresses his feelings in any way other than possessiveness and care. Valerie, meanwhile, is one of the few who can challenge him without losing his love. They share not only mutual attraction but also a deep emotional connection, a bond that exists in the dangerous world of money, power, and criminal intrigue.
