In this tale set in Cornwall in the early nineteenth century, Elfrida is as wild and beautiful as the moors on which she lives. It was there that she met Ben Curran. Determined to become a sculptor, Ben journeyed one day to a nearby fair with some of his carvings, and what happened then was to change many lives.
Why is it that so many h's, despite their "true love" for the H, are so quick to believe the words or deeds of the OW and kick him to the curb? Why is it that, despite the love and passion she felt in his arms, she finds no hardship (possible pun there?) in having multiple orgasms with another man, and one she doesn't particularly care for at all? Why is it she can excuse her own actions but not the H's? And why is it that, with so many reviewers ready to spit venom on the H when his behavior is crappy (and they have every right to do so, when he deserves it) too many seem ready to give the h a free pass?
