Anne Aimes' only attraction is her wealth. Her plain looks mask the yearning to know a man's intimate caresses. Renowned for his ability to pleasure women, Michel des Anges is willing to fulfill her dreams for a paltry ten thousand pounds. What she doesn't know is that Michael, driven by vengeance and ravaged by tragedy, seeks to lose himself in a woman who will demand only physical pleasure, who won t suspect his true motives. A woman he will plunge into a deadly web of deception and revenge where the price of carnal ecstasy is life itself. Description in Spanish: A los 36 anos, Anne Aimes es una solterona cuyo unico encanto reside en su enorme riqueza. Sin embargo, tras su poco atractiva apariencia se esconde una mujer apasionada que desea sentir sobre su piel las mas ardientes caricias masculinas. Michel des Anges es el seductor del momento: todos alaban encarecidamente su capacidad para complacer a sus amantes. Y todo lo que le va a costar a Anne conseguirle son diez mil libras. Traspasado por la tragedia e impulsado por sus ansias de venganza, Michel enredara a Anne en una sordida telarana en la que el precio del placer sera la vida misma.
"My grandparents were very poor: they did not have indoor plumbing. When I stayed with them, I lived pretty much like our ancestors did in the 19th century. The experience gave me a very practical mindset regarding history and the people who lived it. Technology may change, but we do not. We all want. We all need. Beauty. Passion. Love."
