Europe 1939
The world may be teetering on the brink of war, but that's no reason for the privileged classes to deny themselves the satisfaction of their deepest lusts. In exotic and exclusive clubs, they pursue the delights of the flesh with little thought to the world crumbling around them.
Eve Marlowe has everything she needs to lead the most decadent of lives: money, nobility, nerve...and an insatiable appetite for sexual adventure. She also has a singular treasure: a fragrance of ancient origin said to have been prepared for the Queen of Kings herself. Seductive, irresistible, even mystical...it is the scent of pure sensuality.
The power of this elixir is such that it sweeps Lady Marlowe into a game much more dangerous than those she played in the darkened rooms of kinky bars. As the Nazis devour Europe and North Africa, she embarks on a fevered journey, with sizzling stops in Cairo, London, Berlin...each city filled with new perils and pleasures for one anointed with pure lust.

      Beautiful widow Eve Marlowe has it all-a title, a fortune, and an insatiable appetite for the pleasures of the flesh. While cruising the Mediterranean, she encounters Ramzi, a seductive Egyptian who presents her with a gift: a magical vial of fragrance said to have belonged to Cleopatra herself. But the mysterious Ramzi is not what he appears, and when Eve shifts her attention to a handsome American aviator, she's plunged into a dangerous journey that sends her from Cairo to London and then Nazi Berlin in the spring of 1941. Verdict: This steamy faux diary combines rich historical detail with wartime adventure, exotic locations, and sizzling sex. Bacarr's fans will enjoy the drama and overheated sex scenes, but her long passages of purple prose are likely to lose all but the most ardent romance readers.-Jeanne Bogino, New Lebanon Lib., NY
