About This Book
SHE WAS THE ONLY WOMAN IN A POWERFUL DYNASTY OF MEN, WHOSE NAME EVOKED MURKY IMAGES OF UNBRIDLED SEXUAL APPETITES AND DARK, ABOMINABLE DEEDS....
Beautiful, passionate, concerned only with her creature comforts and her sexual needs, Lucrezia was unable to control either the hot Borgia blood that coursed in her veins or the lust her beloved brother, Cesare, felt for her.
Married off at thirteen for the political convenience of her father, Pope Alexander VI, Lucrezia soon discovered that her husband was more enchanted by the palace serving boys than by his child bride. Her second marriage, at eighteen, was an all-consuming love match, which came to a violent and tragic end at the fine Italian hand of her unholy, demon-ridden brother. Her third marriage, at twenty-three, was to a strong yet gentle man, who taught her that there was more to love than gratification in the bedchamber.
And always, hovering over her life like the embodiment of Lucifer, was Cesare, who loved her and hated her, who lusted after her even as he tried to destroy her.
