Maid Marian, widowed lady of the house of Morlaix, enters the court of Prince John as a spy for his mother the Queen. Once there her beauty draws the attention of three men: the prince, Sir William of Wendeval (The Sheriff of Nottingham), and Robin "Hood" of Locksley: But the most dangerous of the three is the prince who wishes to sexually posses all of the women in his keep and takes perverse pleasure in abusing his bedmates. In an attempt to protect Marian from suffering the same fate as the other women, William goes to great lengths to keep her away from the lecherous prince while walking a thin line in maintaining obedience to him. Marian, aware of what is going on, detests the prince but is bound by her honor to the Queen and cannot leave the keep until she has the information she came for. However, in order to remain there and keep her mission a secret, Marion realizes that she must engage in the debauchery of the prince's Court of Pleasure. Though William wishes to ensure that only he "defiles" Marion and as time passes she falls in love with him.

This erotic retelling of the legend of Robin Hood from Maid Marion's point of view is a fun enjoyable read. Unlike the traditional tale a role reversal between the Sheriff of Nottingham and Robin Hood makes them adversaries on opposite sides of the law and competitors for Marian's affection. There's lots of intrigue and action, that readers should find familiar but unlike the traditional tale there's lots of sex and it's a scorcher. This is not a traditional romance erotic retelling of a classic historical is a good read.
