Valiant Jackson has wanted Mae for years. and Mae strikes a bargain: seduce her virginal young cousin, Cecily, who is engaged to Frank Washington. Frank values her innocence above all else. If successful, Val's reward will be a night with Mae. But Val secretly seeks Elizabeth Townsend, who is fiercely loyal to her church and her civil rights attorney husband. |
