Years later, when they meet again, the rogue does not remember Charlotte. Pushing propriety aside, one evening she sneaks out with a friend to attend a masked ball, and there meets a devastatingly handsome stranger who relieves her-not against her wishes-of her virtue, then vanishes. With an uncanny wit and an eye for the whimsical, she unravels a complex-and often hilarious-chain of events inadvertently set in motion by a young woman's first taste of forbidden pleasure.Ībout to make her debut in London society, Charlotte Calverstill, beneath the lavish gowns and manners of a well-brought-up young lady, yearns for a taste of freedom. Eloisa James breathes new life into one of the most popular fiction genres with her highly original debut novel Potent Pleasures, a charming, vividly peopled Regency romance.
