The question is, how long can her soul sustain a perilous double life? Coolly impassioned, 'The Bride Stripped Bare' tells shocking truths about love and sex.

With this as guide, she dares to rupture convention, learning, for the first time, the intoxicating power of knowing what she wants and how to get it. She finds an unlikely heroine to inspire her in a dusty, rare manuscript written by an anonymous woman in the 1600s, a cry from the heart for women to live and love freely. What begins for her in the imagination ends in a tangle of sheets, in drowning spiral of obsession and release. Swiftly, this security masquerading as love fractures in an act of massive betrayal, only to propel her into a world of desire and fantasy and recklessness. As the diary opens on her honeymoon in Morocco, she believes herself to be happy - or happy enough, anyway. But she has left behind an incendiary diary chronicling a disturbing journey of sexual awakening. She was the good wife, the good mother: mannerly, quiet, self-contained. Her car lies abandoned on a remote bluff no body is found. Please contact us if you have a question about this title.Īn explosive novel of sex, secrecy, and escape by an anonymous writer.
