Produktbeschreibung

Born in a brothel in Paris in the early 1700s, Madeleine's future had been decided by her courtesan mother and Madame Claudine. Her innocence at age fourteen would be sold to the highest bidder. She'd be treated as a usable and disposable toy to fulfill her patron's every perverted desire until he tires of her. Then she'd become a courtesan to entertain anyone who visits the brothel.
Madeleine dreams of a better future. She runs away and finds temporary refuge in a convent, but she doesn't have too many options when she turns eighteen. Either going back to the brothel, becoming a servant with an uncertain future, living her life as a nun, or becoming a filles à la cassette, one of the King's Casket Girls, since no reputable man would marry her in France with nothing to her name. To escape her gloomy future, she sails to the New World with hopes for a better life.
What will her future hold? Will she find happiness?

Autorenporträt

I became an avid reader at a very early age, thanks to my dad who introduced me to many great books. The writing bug bit me much later, on a rainy afternoon, when I couldn't find any new book to read. My daughter had enough of my moping around and snapped at me, "Mom, stop whining! If you haven't a book to read, then write one." Her challenge shocked me, but I started playing with the idea and I've been writing stories, that I like to read, ever since. I write speculative alternate history fiction, romantic urban fantasy, historical suspense novels as well as fun, educational, and bilingual books for children ages 2-14 about acceptance, friendship, family, and moral values such as accepting people with disabilities, dealing with bullies, and not judging others before getting to know them. I also like to encourage children to use their imagination and daydream about fantasy worlds.
