Lady Lily Lupine, a young and gorgeous widow with too much time on her hands and an abundance of love to give, fills the void in her life with an array of willing lovers. Men embittered by life and its woes, seeking respite with her, while slaking their thirsts and hunger on the joy and freedom she provides to them

It is a happy arrangement valued by all involved... until one of her treasured gems is found lying a pool of his own blood on the marble tile floor of Lily's foyer.

Lily's life as she knows it threatens to come crashing down around her when Scotland Yard sends a detective from the darkest period of her life to find out exactly what happened to her shattered gem and whether she, herself, had a hand in what appears to be his murder.

[Completed] Highest rank - #68 in General Fiction (10/07/16) ****** Almost every girl has a story of how she fell in love and how it changed her life. How a guy swept her off her feet, made her heart race a thousand miles, made her smile at stupid little things and so on. This story is no different. The only difference is that she fell for a guy who she hated more than mayonnaise. A guy whose face was the first thing she saw every day whether she wanted or not. Whose death she plotted every day in the most gruesome manner. A guy she thought as a devil's spawn. Her own personal hell. He sure did sweep her off her feet, quite literally. And of course, whose heart won't race a thousand miles per second when she is hanged upside down from a bridge. And boy did he changed her life. From a simple quiet day that she was habituated to, she was pulled into swirling tornado of masked men, guns, secrets, conspiracy and of course, love.
