Description
m the moment Moira Callahan arrives at her father's frontier army base, every young cavalry officer is enthralled by her. When her father is killed in battle, Moira tastes life's bitterness for the first time, and, even after her marriage to Lieutenant Bradford Taylor, continues to flirt with scandal and danger.
As Brad's assignments take them from China to the glittering society of Edwardian London, Moira becomes friend and mistress to politicians and noblemen who cannot resist her dazzling smile and worldly charm. Not even a near-tragic confrontation with her daughter over the man they both desire prevents Moira from fighting her private war for independence and equality.
