AND HER WEAKNESSThomas Chippendale was a man of the people, determined to rise in the 18th-century world through the raw power of his ambition and the polished artistry of his furniture-making genius.Isabella Woodleigh was a proper daughter of the upper class, protected from knowledge of her own deepest hungers. To give herself to a man like Thomas Chippendale was unthinkable to her---especially when he seduced her won sister, as if to prove how ruthless his desires were. But when Isabella was forced into marriage to a man who made love an unnatural nightmare, Isabella turned from a girl who fought against what she wanted...to a woman who surrendered to her need for fulfillment at any cost... Here, set in a world of dazzling elegance and swirling intrigue, is Rosalind Laker's most breathtaking romantic spellbinder yet.
