Publisher's summary

In the city of New Orleans, Desiree La Fleur, a dark-haired Creole beauty, arrived with the purpose to celebrate her "Sisters of Sin", the fallen women whose lives began and ended on a street known as The Scarlet Thread. But deep inside Desiree, hiding just beneath the veil of purity, is a forbidden desire for a man who doesn’t want a wife. Armed with unwavering determination and proud innocence, Desiree will soon find herself in a world as enticing at it is dangerous.

Not for me

It seems this book has many positive reviews so I am in a minority here, I did not like it at all.
Heroine, Desiree, is straight laced, pompous and set in her reformist way but at the same time is too dim to see what is right in front of her eyes (“I have a missing sister and this girl looks just like me, hmm.... I wonder why? No... still no idea”)

And this is just the beginning, she carries on making stupid decisions and acting like a total idiot to the very end.....

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
