Sacrifice — Harold Carlton

THREE FAMOUS FACES. THREE TERRIBLE SECRETS.

Marcella Balducci Winton escaped from the staid, close-knit world of Little Italy on the strength of her astonishing writing talent, becoming a literary superstar and the mother of two exceptionally brilliant, beautiful children. With her success she cut all ties to her past...except one. All the erotic force of her writing flows from the tidal wave of her own unsatisfied desire, a passion that her husband could never match -- a passion that, once unleashed, could destroy her.

While Marcella fiercely controls her sensuality, her two talented children cannot. Mark Winton's skill at the classical piano is matched only by his emotional need. And behind Sonia Winton's internationally recognized face lies a dark, bottomless ocean of destructive desire. Finally having found the promise of love, Marcella is breaking free of her old life, of the bonds of passion without connection, but the fierce, desperate needs of her children may shatter all hope of her starting anew.

Marcella. Mark. Sonia. Three famous Wintons, at the brink of superstardom in the glittering worlds of art, music, and fashion. Three glamorous careers, held hostage by secret desires and dreams, careening out of control...
