Publisher's Summary

An eye for an eye, a sin for a sin... The Pleasure Wars, Book 1

Amid all the lies and scandals that fuel Society's gossip mill, one truth has stood out: House Rothcastle and House Windbury have always hated each other. Lady Ava Windbury prays the feud will someday end, to no avail. One dreadful night, her brother accidentally causes the death of Christian Rothcastle's sister, a tragedy that leaves both men maimed.

Consumed by grief, Christian makes a grim decision. He will kidnap Lady Ava so that her family will feel the pain of loss as keenly as he feels the loss of his own sister. But once he has Ava in his clutches, desire takes unexpected hold. Even more surprising, she willingly surrenders to his every sexual whim - after haggling over the terms of giving up her virginity.

Too late, he realizes she is using her body for peace, not war. But just as their affair of revenges turns into an affair of the heart, the past rears its ugly head to take matters into its own hands...

Warning: This audiobook contains scenes of erotic seduction, sexual revenge and the healing power of love.

A surprisingly good story

…in fact, I thought it fantastic. The narrator was excellent and brought the story to life. I particularly loved her portrayal of Lady Ava. The synopsis provided a well-described glimpse into what to expect and I was pleased to discover the author handled the themes gracefully, created protagonists with emotional depth and created a cracking good story with richness and eroticism. I highly recommend this audiobook and I too will be looking to other books by Jess Michaels as I enjoy her writing style.
