Soon to be trapped in a loveless marriage, Manuela has given herself one last summer of freedom--in Paris, with her two best friends. Cora Kempf Bristol, Duchess of Sundridge, is known for her ruthlessness in business. It's not money she chases, but power. When she sees the opportunity to secure her position among her rivals, she does not hesitate. How difficult could it be to convince the mercurial Miss Caceres Galvan to part with a parcel of land she's sworn never to sell? Tempted by Cora's offer, Manuela proposes a trade: her beloved land for a summer with the duchess in her corner of Paris. A taste of the wild, carefree world that will soon be out of her reach. What follows thrills and terrifies Cora, igniting desires the duchess long thought dead. As they fill their days indulging in a shared passion for the arts and their nights with dark and delicious deeds, the happiness that seemed impossible moves within reach...though claiming it would cause the greatest scandal Paris has seen in decades." -- $c Publisher marketing. 650 0 $a Heiresses $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Lesbians $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Romance fiction. 650 0 $a Scandals $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Nobility $z England $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Paris (France) $y 19th century $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Romance fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Gay fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Lesbian fiction. $2 lcgft 800 1 $a Herrera, Adriana $c (Romance author) $t Las LeÌonas ; $v 2. 941 $a 5 952 $l HOPC845 $d 20231226011227.0 952 $l CIPB482 $d 20230919011848.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20230902014340.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20230802012702.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20230606011343.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=7EA9C5F8042F11EE896B6DEA35ECA4DB 994 $a Z0 $b LJWInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
