Contains the following stories: The Pleasure Game (Thea Devine) Mastering Lady Lucinda (Bertrice Small) Risking It All (Susan Johnson) A Man and a Woman (Robin Schone)(Lady's Tutor #2)

Set in 1812, Devine's "The Pleasure Game" finds the virginal Lady Regina Olney conspiring against her protective, scheming father by learning the ways of the world from the proverbial boy next door. Set in 1750, Small's "Mastering Lady Lucinda" finds the young, widowed Lady Lucinda Harrington publicly humiliating three suitors. Incensed, they conspire to have her kidnapped and trained to enjoy the pleasures of matrimony. Lucinda, however, is a woman ahead of her time, and has a trick or two up her sleeve. "Risking It All," Johnson's contribution, also features a young widow. She is Felicia Greenwood, who gambles in Monte Carlo to save her villa. Just as she is about to lose her fortune, a handsome stranger offers assistance. Victorian-era principles notwithstanding, Felicia repays her mysterious benefactor by spending some wanton hours with him. Finally, there is Schone's "A Man and a Woman." The protagonist is a 48-year-old vicar's widow named Megan who trades places with a local prostitute to experience a night of sexual abandon with a man dressed as an Arab.
