Historical erotic romance anthology from Ellora's Cave. Two stories. Leda Swann's story about an enterprising woman who teaches engaged young women how to run a household, and how to keep their future husband's attentions. This story is creative, romantic and well written. Enjoyed it. Claire Thompson's story is set in France, in the 1600s. Collette's father gambles away the very life of his youngest daughter, with no regrets. This story is a little dark, and contains the rape and forced sex of two women, but not by the hero. I didn't care for it. It does, of course end happily ever after.
