It starts as a case of mistaken identity, but it will slowly blossom into the union of two people so right for each other all of New Orleans society will stand up and take notice. As soon as aristocratic Rafael Navarro lays eyes on the copious curves of Catherine Mayfield, he knows he must have her. His machinations will soon be his mistake; he has taken her to be a woman of another name and of easy virtue. He only realizes his flagrant folly after compromising Catherine's good name. Forced to become his betrothed, she grudgingly gives into his desires and lets his life consume her. That means living in Raphael's looming mansion on a bewitched bayou. This forbidding plantation holds hidden tragedies and pent-up passions behind its walls. Catherine still resists his demands, but the temptations in her heart and the pleasures in her fantasies will creep up on her like jungle vines. Danger is in the air, passions ready to flare. If he is going to have her, she wants all of him in return, but will the ghosts of his past ever free him to be totally hers? There's just no telling how devious is the path to Love's Wild Desire.
