Love, Sacred and Profane
Worthington, Avis
From the corrupt courts of Louis XIV to the frivolous follies of an Italian company of players to a cloistered castle in Brittany, convent-bred Julie de Simon searched for her runaway cousin, Marie-Madeleine.

Instead, she found Marie's bold guardian, Guy de Lionne, a man who had savaged the hearts of the most unattainable ladies of the French court.

Torn between her spiritual nature and the deep stirrings of her dark desires, Julie fought the demands of Guy's tormented embraces -- until Fate would decide their spiritual and physical destiny -- a destiny of eternal desire.
