This erotic novella tells the tale of Margaret Blake, a thirty-something intelligent hedonist trapped in a dull marriage. Margaret relieves her boredom by flirting outrageously with her husband's male friends, so provoking desires she has no intention of satisfying. Until, that is, she meets Andrew Burton, a cynical womaniser who doesn't take no for an answer; the effect is life changing. Unknown to Margaret, this is no chance encounter. Captivated by Burton, Margaret is educated in a new way of life, in which she comes to terms with her own sensuality and deeper needs, both physical and psychological.
