Palaces of Desire — Karen Alexander

Nicole de Clervaux, beautiful...young...innocent. Destiny would tear her from the ardent embrace of her lover and send her from the glittering court of Versailles into the dark shadow of the guillotine.

Roger Duchamp, ambitious, self-made man of the Revolution. He would use all his cunning to possess the lovely Nicole. And when crossed, his hatred knew no bounds.

William, Duke Of Falkland, dark-eyed, arrogant nobleman. He became Nicole's guardian -- and the man to ignite a passion as all-consuming as the fires sweeping revolutionary France.
