There are many good reasons for a woman to hide her feelings. Cressida risks losing her life if she succumbs to the man she loves. Cressida, Lady Lovett, believes her reluctance in the bedchamber caused by a brush with death during her last childbirth, has driven her husband into another woman's arms. Desperate to discover the truth behind Lord Lovett's increasing absences, she follows him to Mrs Plumb's notorious Salon of Sin where she gets more than she bargains for when one of the women takes pity on her and teaches her some tricks of their trade. Armed at last with the means to control her fertility, Cressida transforms herself into the vixen of her husband's dreams in the hope that she can win him back. But when she returns to the salon, intending to repay the woman responsible for her liberation, she discovers her unlikely benefactress was, and possibly still is, her husband's mistress. Can Cressida regain Lord Lovett's affections and, in the process, unravel the mystery of a long lost child?
