About this book
“We have been wed fifteen years and I’ve given you four children. I now plan to experience la petite mort.”
When Julia Balistarius, Duchess of Astwell, declared over breakfast that she planned to conduct extramarital liaisons, her cad of a husband Laurence barely reacted — until he realized that an embarrassing public affair could threaten his political career. Laurence makes her an offer: he’ll tutor his wife in how to be the perfect, discreet paramour, and he’ll do it while never making demands of her body.
Before his wife can begin her adulterous adventures, Laurence dictates she needs preparation. He’ll see that she’s primped and fashionable, inspected by a doctor, and ensure that her body is primed by her comely maid so she’s ready to receive her new lovers. Julia masters every lesson he sets, but can Laurence maintain his longtime disinterest in loving his wife?
Prepared for Her Pleasure is the 10,000-word first story in the five-part His Duchess’s Lovers series. The stories can be enjoyed individually, but we recommend reading the books in order to enjoy the full HEA for the Duke and Duchess of Astwell.
