reviewed Mistress of the Streets on + 226 more book reviews
She had learned the ways of the world all too early..from tht poverty she was born into..from the savage London slum where she grew up..from the drunken cruelty of her mother..from the scented corruption of her sister..from teh bawdyhouse madam so eager to use and the host of men burning to have her...
but she was ignorant of love and what it meant when she gave herself to a man who lived like a noble and was hunted like a outlaw...

her name was Nell Gwynne, and in the world of mingled liverty and licentiousness that was Restoration England, the streets were her path of conquest and her beauty the keys to a kingdom...
