Publisher's Summary

In this vivid reimagining of the French classic Les Liaisons Dangereuses, in the summer when Jackie Robinson breaks Major League Baseball's color barrier and a sweltering stretch has Harlem's elite fleeing the city for Westchester County's breezier climes, two predators stalk amidst the manicured gardens and fine old homes.

Heiress Mae Malveaux rules society with an angel's smile and a heart of stone. She made up her mind long ago that nobody would decide her fate. To have the pleasure she craves, control is paramount, especially control of the men Mae attracts like moths to a flame.

Valiant Jackson always gets what he wants - and he's wanted Mae for years. The door finally opens for him when Mae strikes a bargain: seduce her virginal young cousin, Cecily, who is engaged to Frank Washington. Frank values her innocence above all else. If successful, Val's reward will be a night with Mae.

But Val secretly seeks another prize. Elizabeth Townsend is fiercely loyal to her church and her civil rights attorney husband. Certain there is something redeemable in Mr. Jackson, little does she know that her worst mistake will be Val's greatest triumph.

A real snoozer

This book was extremely boring. All of the female characters seemed liked the same person. The narrator's monotone reading did not help.

This was a very enjoyable reading/listening experience

The writing was like poetry to me - the main characters were complex yet the way story unravelled made it a page turner
