France eagerly awaits the day the young King, Louis XV, comes of age and breaks free from the rule of his ministers. The country hopes Louis will bring back glory and prosperity to France. However, he is too preoccupied with the thrills of hunting and gambling to notice the power struggle going on in his own court. Soon, the King is introduced to the pleasures of mistresses and a succession of lovers follows. From the gentle persuasions of Madame de Mailley to her overtly ambitious sister, Madame Vintimille, France stands by and watches a King ruled by his women…

Her novels are still very much to be enjoyed … Any writer who can both educate and thrill a reader of any age deserves to be remembered and find new fans … One only has to look at the TV/Media to see that the appetite for this kind of writing is still very much there
