man oh man..............

man oh man this is a great erotic set during a very unique time period. loved the historic language and i especially loved our wanton heroine. man oh man i couldn't put this book down....... great job, allen!

Oh my god!! A book with fencing! Yay!

Marisa is a ne'er do well, near illiterate woman who makes her life on the streets using her wiles and her skill at cheating at gambling. She inherits an estate from on old lady who leaves it to her deceased father. However, the man who stood to inherit it is upset that she got instead, so he moves to take advantage of her and get her money. Well written, a lot of plot and story and characterization instead of just he sleeps with her, and then she sleeps with him. The black lace series is written by women for women... so the books tend to read like romance novels sometimes... but dirtier. It's nice to see an erotic novel with a well written plot that lends itself to the sex... instead of the plot being because of the sex. Althoough the author does tend to have a hang up with large male members. But she regains points with me for including fencing in the story. :)
