Libertine Bryn, Earl of Caradoc, is in search of a mistress. When Clare Easton enters the picture, the sparks fly. She instantly hates him and he's immediately intrigued. The mistress interview is hysterical. Clare has many secrets and is surprised when quality people (Bryn's friends wives) like her, even though she's a whore. This tale is heart-wrenching and irresistibly sweet. Bryn matures, starts thinking of others and finally finds himself. Clare, on the other hand, uses her religious upbringing to hold herself back from Bryn regardless of her promises to him.
