About this ebook
Countess Anna von Esslin has done something very uncharacteristic: she hasn't taken a lover in over two years!
Surrounded by submissive young poets who bore her to tears, she would rather endure complete celibacy than settle for anything less than a true equal. None of the men in Munich meet her standards...especially her rival, James McKirnan.

Then her cousin whisks her away from a crowded palace gala with a promise and a strip of black satin. The Countess is given a surprising birthday presents--a mystery lover who will only see her when she is blindfolded.
In the quiet of a secluded bedchamber, an anonymous stranger commands her senses with breathtaking authority. He fulfills Anna's every desire...but when the blindfold comes off, will she like what she sees?
