Ninon de Lenclos was taught by her dashing father to fully savor the sensual pleasures of love. Young, impressionable and in the first blush of her awakening sexuality, she meets Charles de Beaumonts, an infamous charmer, an irresistible rogue who is compelled to conquer women only to desert them. Ninon piques his desire as no woman before…but even she cannot tame him.
Though her heart is torn asunder, Ninon resolves that never again will she be thwarted in love, or denied in desires. And so, in 17th century Paris, the flamboyant, voluptuous Paris of Louis XIV, Moli?re, Scarron and the infamous Cardinal Richelieu, the exploits, the lovers, the extravagances of Ninon de Lenclos become the most imitated of all sensations.
Still craving the profound fulfillment and sensual abandon of her first love, Ninon meets dashing, sensitive Charles de Villiers…the man she has been searching for…the one man she can never have….
