Beskrivelse
From International Bestselling Author Jennie L. Morris. France, 1720Among the lavish court of the young King Louis XV, members of the elite play games of delightful debauchery in the shadows. Marquis Eloy de Harelle survives on the libertine-lifestyle of his brethren. Destitute, Lucr?ce Beaurin turns to her godmother for assistance, the Dowager Marquise de Harelle. Far from her small country life, Lucr?ce finds Paris a formidable den of heathens. A ruinous secret: the Harelle's are on the brink of financial collapse. Eloy takes on Lucr?ce as his prot?g?, hoping she captures a rich suitor. The beguiling woman flourishes under his tutelage, winning over the court with a lover's touch. Jealousy and greed are perilous foes, because who could ever truly love a libertine?
