Forbidden

by Susan Johnson

Overview

He was raised in gilded lap of luxury - Etienne Martel, the magnificently virile Duc de Vec, notorious rake, expert sportsman - and the most celebrated lover in all of Paris. But from the moment he saw the incomparable Daisy Black, he knew he would never desire another. She was born half a world away - Daisy Black, a proud Montana beauty, exotic and untamed - and determined to fight for the rights of women in a land ruled by men. Yet the instant she felt the heat of Vec's jungle-green gaze, she knew she was lost. Like some haunting promise of paradise he drew her in, fanning the flames of her desire until all she could think of was lying in his arms. Now, caught up in a dance as old as time, Etienne and Daisy have eyes only for each other. But soon, they will find their happiness threatened by a society rocked by their scandalous love by the woman Etienne calls wife.
