Butterfly

Maggiori informazioni sul libro

To coincide with the publication of its sequel, Avon reissues the sizzling New York Times bestseller, a scintillating novel of Beverly Hills wickedness and passion. The vivid tale centers on a unique Beverly Hills brothel called Butterfly, founded by a wealthy woman and frequented by three troubled female patrons. Discreetly located above an elegant men's clothing store, the brothel features costumed male "companions"—a masked burglar, a Confederate soldier, a Versailles courtier, and a cowboy—who cater to women's needs and fantasies. Lawyer Jessica Franklin seeks relief from her cold husband; Dr. Linda Markus attempts to cure her frigidity; and Trudie Stein desires affirmation of her femininity. Behind the scenes is the brothel's owner, Beverly Highland, whose harrowing life story unfolds alongside the main narrative. After fleeing her abusive father in New Mexico at 14, Beverly fell into the hands of Danny Mackay, who forced her into a squalid brothel and made her abort their baby. Vowing revenge, she transforms herself through plastic surgery, becomes a successful entrepreneur, and cunningly plots against Mackay, now a powerful TV evangelist and presidential candidate. Glamour, wickedness, and passion drive this highly commercial novel to a dramatic and unexpected conclusion.
