LUSTFUL EMBRACE OF A KING

From the Hideous Jaws of Death to the Lustful Embrace of a King Angel Dawson was a flame-haired beauty sprung from the squalor of the teeming London slums. The streets were her school, whore-masters and thieves were her teachers, and when she was siezed by the law, it seemed that the dread confines of Newgate prison would be the terrified 16 year old girl's grave. But this was the tunultuous, lustful era of Charles II, when a lovely young girl could be trained to please the fancy of the king, and no law was stronger than the licentiousness of the age. Angel Dawson's career had just begun... I read this years ago and after all these years it is one of the few books that I have kept after moving all over the place.. a great deal for little money

Book Description

This book was first published in 1974 and is the sequal to "The King's Brat".From back cover:The Earl of Benbrook had schooled Angel Dawson well. The street accents were gone from her speech when he presented her as a gracious lady at the court of the King. And Angel had taught Nicholas, too, the lessons of love. They had earned her an even more precious honor; she was now his wife, the Lady Benbrook.But Barbara Castlemaine, first among the King's mistresses, cannot forgive Angel for her beauty, charm and her special place in the King's heart and engineers a plot against her destined to bring about her downfall.

Hard to put down.

The tempestuous tale of Angel Dawson's rise from the streets of London to the court of Charles II.
