Sparks fly when disgraced Lydia defies Pierreβs advice and makes a bad situation much worse.
On the brink of bankruptcy, Lydia has been shunned by polite society.
Itβs 1921 and, in a city that prides itself on its image of gentility, she faces sudden, unexpected ruin. She is orphaned and without hope until the charming, street savvy Pierre comes calling.
Everything has a price. If she accepts his help, he expects her to obey him, in this and other matters. With no family or friends to turn to, Lydia has to decide if letting Pierre guide her will be worse than trying to solve her problems alone.
Warning: the reddest globes in the room are not on the Christmas tree in this holiday novella. If a tale of a feisty woman being spanked by her loving man offends you, please do not read any further.
