It thrills me to say another great, fabulous, intriguing and stupendous book. This was a learning experience for me. I knew and of course read a lot about the modeling industry, but never such a raw version about the model and her point of view. One thing I learned was: GO to France. Those French people could teach the stick up the ass American’s a lot. Everyone no matter what they look like is beautiful. They are born to be free and very expressive. I like that idea!
The book follows Supermodel Katie Wolfer through a fairly short period of time. It goes back and gives a little history here and there. She is just done with a modeling job when she gets a call from her stepfather. Straight from the Dior runway in Paris, Katie is informed that her mother committed suicide. How can her mother do this? Her mother has killed herself after being found out in an affair. It later comes out it was a bad error in judgement and it was her personal trainer and she couldn’t forgive herself. This is a shock, but I soon discovered that Katie was not as distraught as I thought she should have been. Being a model changes your ideals, emotions and expressiveness. Katie was conditioned to roll with it. If something on a runway went bad, you carry on. I think she was struggling with being alone more than the loss of her Mother. Upon takeoff she has a very erotic encounter with Gavin, whom she just met on the plain. It turns out Gavin Poole is her rom mate Natasha’s brother. Natasha is also a famous model, who is very free with her expression.
Now in NY her French stepfather, Daniel de Goncourt, a wealthy financier, greets her. Katie becomes entangled with both of them, exploring her darkest sexual desires amidst a lavish, decadent lifestyle. Her step brother Ryan is depressed and medicated, while her step sister Caroline is a step away from being medicated. I am sure there is controversy over the lifestyle, but I for one just sucked it all up.
This novel will seduce you like no other. Katie is seducing or being seduced by both male and female. She doesn’t discriminate. Deeply erotic, thrilling, sensual, I know this book will intrigue you. I love reading about the New York and Hampton lifestyles. I marvelous book with the perfect amount of lustful sin. Go read it NOW!! (lots of steam, sex,and drugs if you cant handle a rated R movie don’t read this one! Well maybe you do need to read this one as a social experiment, it could be what you need)
Go read it NOW and then buy a copy for someone you love!
