Only when she falls in love with a young student does settling down seem attractive. However, Robin - the young man who has captured her heart - knows nothing of Milly's scandalous behaviour, including her stint as a Mistress of Correction. Her facade of innocence can only last so long before he discovers the truth about her licentious ways. Milly cannot change her sensual nature and her life moves relentlessly towards a crisis, and a choice.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49570319958289,"sku":"GOR003729396","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0352331194.jpg?v=1750813067"},{"product_id":"mistress-book-vivienne-lafay-9780352330574","title":"The Mistress","description":"Emma Longmore is making the most of her role as mistress to the handsome Daniel Forbes.
