Helen Hamilton and her sisters , Jane and Amelia, are
tossed from their home forcing Helen to support them all.
Helen's latest job interview is a complete disaster. As
soon as Captain Odell lays eyes on Helen, he pushes her out
the door, claiming she is not an appropriate governess for
his 12-year-old sister, Rose. Desperate, Helen takes the
advice of a courtesan to become a mistress. Helen
interviews at a brothel with a heavy heart because her
options have come down to selling her body. To her dismay,
none other than Captain Odell walks through the door
looking for a mistress. His anger at seeing Helen is
confusing, but he quickly decides to hire her as Rose's
governess.
Captain Tristan Odell enjoys his life sailing the seven
seas until he receives a letter from his dying father
requesting that Tristan become guardian to his brother,
Michael, the new earl, and his sister, Rose. Tristan
doesn't take the request lightly and it proves to be
challenging handling a randy 18-year-old earl who's unable
to keep his hands off the maids. The only solution is to
allow Michael weekly visits to a brothel, saving him from
conspiring and inappropriate females attempting to secure
marriage to a wealthy earl. Tristan's decision follows on
the heels of tossing out the beautiful Helen Hamilton
because of the temptation she invokes. But when Tristan
finds Helen selling herself to save her own family,
temptation be damned.
TASTE OF TEMPTATION is classic Cheryl Holt, witty
and funny with enough secrets and betrayal to keep you
turning the pages. I never set the book down.
Destitute spinster Helen Hamilton finds herself at a
brothel where she agrees to sell herself to a client of
wealth and prestige. Tristan Odell buys her, but what he
wants is a governess for his younger siblings. What he gets
is so much more...
