Rosa is a complex character; beautiful,tough, smart, loving,engaging, coarse, and deeply thoughtful.

The story of her childhood is agonizingly painful, as is her early adulthood filled with drugs, and sexual exploitation at the hands of truly evil men. She manages to lift herself up with help from other abused women. She seduces magician Fletcher Brandon with great sex, wit, humor and her brand of brashness. She can never fully trust any man even one as loving, patient and supportive as Fletcher; she remains justifiably vulnerable, and resistant to a full committal to a long deep relationship.

When she leaves for Amsterdam he finds out that she has been more of a magician than he.

A smart, compelling, fascinating read about love, friendship, comfort, betrayal, and grace. .… (plus d'informations)
