Synopsis

Tessa swept across the European stage like a whirlwind, captivating audiences with her dazzling portrayals. Then, on the opening night of her Paris triumph, she fled the tyranny of Rudolpho, the darkly passionate Maestro who demanded that Tessa fill his nights as her beautiful mother once had. Separated from Rene,, the only man she truly loved, and driven to the horrors of an English brothel, she had yet to face the most demanding role of her career, a role that would plunge her in the midst of Spain's courtly intrigue as mistress to the King, a role that might win her lover's freedom - or imprison her forever!
