Sinopse

The Romance of Lust is an audacious and compelling work that delves into the intricacies of human desire, sexuality, and the social constructs surrounding them. Written in a frank and unfiltered style, the book utilizes a first-person narrative that grants readers intimate access to the lives and passions of its characters. Set against the backdrop of Victorian England, a period marked by repressive moral codes, the narrative challenges the era's stringent norms by exploring unbridled sensuality and the pursuit of pleasure. The text is rich in vivid imagery and detail, positioning it as a controversial but significant contribution to erotic literature that also invites critical reflections on societal hypocrisy regarding sexuality. The author remains anonymous, which adds an intriguing layer of mystique to the work, often speculated to be a reactionary stance against the societal constraints of their time. This anonymity has prompted much debate regarding the text's origins and its possible implications on the discourse surrounding sexual liberation. The boldness of the narrative serves as a reflection of the underground movements advocating for sexual freedom during the late 19th century, echoing sentiments that were gaining momentum amidst rigid societal controls. This book is highly recommended for readers interested in exploring the complexities of desire through a historical lens. It serves not only as a provocative literary piece but also as a cultural artifact that invites discussions on the evolution of attitudes towards sexuality. Engaging with The Romance of Lust allows one to reflect on contemporary issues surrounding sexual freedom, identity, and the ongoing dialogue on morality.

    The page-turning Regency romance from the author of Kingscastle
    
    First published as Bless Thine Inheritance by Sophia Holloway.
    Celia Mardham's first London Season should have been a great success, but a near fatal riding accident has left her with a pronounced limp which means she cannot even curtsy, let alone dance.
    Condemned it seems to spinsterhood, her mother Lady Mardham makes one last effort. She draws up a list of guests for a country house party, picking only young ladies who will not be rivals, as well as some potential suitors.
    Among the gentlemen is Lord Levedale and when he meets Celia he sees her, not the limp. However, a number of accidents, misunderstandings and spiteful interventions litter the path ahead, and may succeed in driving them apart for good.
