A family legacy of lust, scandal and deceit…

Fame, fashion and scandal, the Trevellyan heiresses are the height of success, glamour and style.

But when it comes to…

…WEALTH Jemima can barely scrape by funding her husband’s dilapidated family home; Tara’s one purpose in life, no matter the sacrifice, is to be financially independent of her family and husband; and Poppy wants to escape its trappings without sacrificing the comforts its brings.

…LUST it's all Jemima can think of to escape the drudgery of her days and her husband; whilst Tara’s self-imposed ‘perfect’ life doesn’t allow for such indulgences; and Poppy, spoiled by attention and love throughout her life, has yet to expose herself to the thrill of really living and loving dangerously.

…FAMILY it's all they’ve ever known, and now the legacy of their parents, a vast and ailing perfume empire, has been left in their trust. But will they be able to turn their passion into profit? In making a fresh start, can they face their family’s past?
