The Image and the Dream
FROM CONVENT INNOCENCE TO THE FLESH AND FIRE OF A NOTORIOUS BORDELLO

Bold and beguiling, Marie possessed the refinements of a convent education and the daring desires of a pampered courtesan.

FROM THE NAKED HUNGERS OF NEW ORLEANS TO THE HAUGHTY ELEGANCE OF A FRENCH CHATEAU

Changing worlds as easily as she changed gowns, she was the scandal of New Orleans, the toast of Paris, the haunting fantasy of countless men.

FROM THE DECADENCE OF VERSAILLES TO THE PILLARS OF PONTCHARTRAIN, A SPRAWLING PLANTATION BORN OF A DREAM...

Driven by white-hot passions, she would sin and be forgiven, love and be loved, desire and be desired.  But always she would triumph, for hers was a will that could not be broken, a beauty no man could forget, and a dazzling destiny.  Hers would be...the image and the dream.
