AmazonA life she never expected. A desire she cannot deny…
When young Negro seamstress Amelie is brought to the Blackwell estate to make dresses for the vivacious Jan Blackwell, she anticipates only work, not the intoxicating world of wealth and power she is about to enter.
But Jan’s husband, the master of the house, Leo Blackwell, is brilliant, commanding… and dangerously magnetic.
From the moment their eyes meet, Amelie and Leo are drawn together, every glance, every touch fanning a fire they cannot contain.
She knows she should resist him. He knows he should stop.
But even in 1887 New York, desire never asks for permission.
