The Gift of Shame (Black Lace)

Sad, sultry Helen flies between London, Paris, and the Caribbean chasing whatever physical pleasures she can get to tear her mind from a deep, deep loss. Her glamorous lifestyle and charged sensual escapades belie a widow's grief. When she meets handsome, rich Jeffrey she is shocked and yet intrigued by his masterful, domineering behavior. Soon, Helen is forced to confront the forbidden desires hiding within herself—and forced to undergo a startling metamorphosis from a meek and modest lady into a bristling, voracious wanton.
