Title: Veronica COURTESAN
Author: Siobhan Daiko
Genre: Erotic/ Historic
I watch him watching us, imagining how he would take me.
I send him the message with my eyes.
This is who I am.
I am Veronica Franco.
I am a COURTESAN.
I court the cultural elite for fame and fortune, giving my body to many.
And I’m good. So very good. After all, I was taught by my mother, and mother always knows best.
How else to please the future King of France than with the imaginative use of Murano glass? How else to fulfil the desires of all yet keep my sense of self-worth?
But when disaster strikes and my life begins to unravel, I’ll have to ask myself one question:
Is it too late to give my heart to just one man?
Set in Venice 16th Century.
Advisory: sensuously erotic. 18+
Oh my! What an amazing and titilating erotic story this was. As the title suggests, Veronica is a Courtesan in 16th century Venice when it was considered by many as acceptable to be such a lady.
When we start the story, Veronica is 17 summers old and is married to an abusive man many years her senior but due to his own sexual issues, he is unable to consumate their marriage. Veronica decides that she wants her freedom and with the help of her mother, she leaves her husband and becomes a Courtesan. She is not just any Courtesan though, she is the most beautiful and respected Courtesan in all of Venice. She truely has a beautiful nature that men seem drawn too. Her poetry skills are superb and it is this talent that also assists her in life.
This story is NOT for anyone who dislikes sex between men and men on women and women as it does contain a fair bit of this. It is an erotic story so be prepared to get very hot and bothered and for your kindle to start smoking from the sceens the author depicts.
The author has done an amazing job with her recreation of the 16th century from her descriptive dialogue to her vivid recount of the people and places. At times I actually felt like if I closed my eyes, I could see everything she was describing to me.
This was my fist Sobhan Daiko book and I have to say I am now hooked.
Don't miss out on this amazing story of Veronica and her three main lovers, Ludovico, Andrew and her most beloved Marco. You will really enjoy the trip to the past with this story!
