They vibrated with incendiary Jazz. They teemed with
sexual abandon. The Twenties were roaring and the
women--young, open, rebellious, and willing--set the pace
and pushed the limits with every man they met... In the aftermath of a wild, liquor-soaked party, three women
from very different social classes are about to live out
their forbidden desires. Society girl, Nora Richardson's passionate nature has always
been a challenge to her ever-patient husband. Now he wants
out of the marriage and she has just this one night to win
him back. The catch? He wants to punish her for her
bad behavior. Nora is offended by her husband's increasingly
depraved demands, but as the night unfolds, she discovers
her own true nature and that the line between pain and
pleasure is very thin indeed. Meanwhile, Clara Cartwright, sultry siren of the silent
screen, is introduced to a mysterious WWI Flying Ace. If
Clara, darling of the scandal sheets, knows anything, it's
men. And she's known plenty. But none of them push her
boundaries like the aviator, who lures her into a ménage
with a stranger in a darkened cinema then steals her jaded
heart. Working class girl Sophie O'Brien has more important things
on her mind than pleasures of the flesh. But when her
playboy boss, the wealthy heir to the Aster family fortune,
confronts her with her diary of secret sex fantasies, she
could die of shame. To her surprise, he doesn't fire her;
instead, he dares her to re-enact her boldest fantasies and
Sophie is utterly seduced. One party serves as a catalyst of sexual awakening. And in
an age when anything goes, three women discover that
anything is possible...

An amazing time and wonderful beginning for women to express themselves - look forward to this book.

This was the era when my Mom was a little girl. Although she is no longer with me, I would love to read this book, and learn a little more about what it was like for her, growing up. She only told me bits and pieces about her life. How I wish that she had opened up to me more, but I suppose she had her reasons. Alzheimer's took her from me too early!! I love the cover of your book, and I've always loved the outfits from that era!!

I was thinking that this book is quite topical with the remake of Gatsby - if it needed remaking. A new story of the twenties is more interesting than one we already know, and will have different sidelights. Well done!
