Про цю електронну книгу

A timid librarian finds passion, romance, and mystery on the trip of a lifetime

On the eve of her thirtieth birthday, Vergie Whidby feels unwanted and unloved. She has no romantic prospects on the horizon, yet her body and soul cry out for life, love, and desire.
 
Desperate for a change, Vergie withdraws most her savings from the bank and books a trip to romantic St. Augustine, Florida. There, amid the old world splendor, she splurges on fancy dresses and lacy undergarments, determined to be a different woman than the small-town librarian she has become. But even in the arms of a skilled and handsome lover, Vergie is unable to let go of a lifetime of inhibitions. It will take a case of mistaken identity and the influence of Valerie Ware, reclusive author of such steamy romances as Shameless Sinners and Penthouse Passion, to unleash the burning desires that Vergie has kept locked up for so long.
