Released from a horrible marriage by her late husband’s death, Penelope Kross is ready to start her new life. But expected to follow rules of respectability, she finders her freedom postponed by her mourning. Seeking some alleviation from this gloomy reality, Penelope decides to attend a masquerade weekend, never imagining she would find something more than a few nights of music and dancing.
To earn the money required to restore the estate he has inherited, Francis Folsham has agreed to supply his cousin’s concupiscent guests with his desirable presence. When he is commanded to attend Mrs. Kross for an evening, Francis is beyond himself with weariness over his situation. But keeping his goals in mind, he submits to his cousin’s demand, never envisaging the seemingly dull Mrs. Kross would prove more than a bored society lady seeking a night of pleasure.
After suffering at the hands of a vile husband, Penelope is terrified at the idea of becoming intimate with another man, but Francis is there to show her the way.
In each other, Penelope and Francis discover a happiness neither dreamed could be theirs, but can their feelings endure the separation imposed upon them by the laws of propriety?
This romantically torrid tale of the Regency era contains sexually explicit content.
