About the Author

D. A. Belmont knows Fort Lauderdale intimately, what goes on undercover as well as under the covers. Belmont's wisely squandered youth was spent in Florida's "Venice of America" and wildly in other enthralling fleshpots north and south of the equator. Fort Lauderdale is a captivating place, a bejeweled cesspool of sleaze that makes Vegas look like a Shaker settlement. Diamondacious! is D.A. Belmont's first published book. It was inspired by the Titans: Grace Metalious, Harold Robbins, Jacqueline Susann and Sidney Sheldon. The giants may be gone. They are not forgotten. A sparkling and fast-paced sequel to the Debbie DeVore Vargas Helmut saga that began with Diamondacious! will be published as Worldly Woman. It features a now-auburn-haired, more mature, but no less ravishing, main character. Available soon.
