Scandalous Lovers - Softcover

While visiting a famous London museum, Frances Hart accidentally wanders into a meeting of the Men and Women's Club, which gathers at the museum to discuss sex. Intrigued by Frances' forthright answers when she is questioned on the subject of a woman's right to pleasure, barrister James Whitcox insists that Frances join the club. What begins as a philosophical discussion soon becomes a hands-on study of desire when James convinces Frances to indulge in a scandalous liaison. But neither one expected their temporary affair would ever turn into love. Schone is known for her boldly sensual writing, and Scandalous Lovers is no exception. The sizzling affair between Frances, a refreshingly older heroine, and James is captured in vivid detail, but Schone also gives readers some surprisingly nuanced characterization and an expertly evoked Victorian setting. Libraries where authors like Susan Johnson, Cheryl Holt, and Emma Holly are popular will want to add Schone's latest scorchingly hot historical to their collections. John Charles
