Publisher's Summary
An enthralling novel set in early 19th-century England, Paris, and New York, featuring an indomitable young heroine who rises from ruin to become the toast of Paris, by way of the chic bordello she establishes for the most powerful men in France.
Turned out of her ancestral home by her vicious half brother, the orphaned daughter of an English duke and a French noblewoman makes her way to Paris and takes in abused French streetwalkers, transforming them into sought-after courtesans in the city's most exclusive bordello, Le Boudoir. It is only the beginning of her return to the upper reaches of society and ultimate justice.

Loved this book!
I love historical novels. This one was charming, with unexpected turns and outcomes!
No time wasted on sex scenes, which have become a bit tiresome, adding nothing to a plot.
Haven’t read this authors books for a long time but will look for another. Surprisingly good!

Simple yet very entertaining
I am still a fairly new fan of DS. I really enjoyed this book and how it ended. Narration really added to the story and brought out the best in each character.

Lighthearted period piece. Well narrated. A bit windy but otherwise enjoyable Daniel Steele. Worth the listen.

Danielle Steele at her best
just loved my first audible book I must admit it took me a few chapters to kind of get used to listening instead of reading the words but for someone who has sight issues it was fantastic. highly recommend audible and of course you can't go wrong with a boo of DS.

Loved it!
I used to read a lot of DS, but this is my first book written by her in a long time. She never disappoints.
