This book could easily have been written by Carolyn Jewel or Julie Ann Long--the prose is that good. The setting that incorporates old Louisana history and the first New Orleans Mardi Gras parade is an intricate part of the relationship of the leads. The best aspect of this book though, is the intense experience of the conflict between sensual attraction and the history of enmity that exists between them.
