Tender is the tyrant.

Description

One moment Lauri had been a ballet student living peacefully with her aunt in Downhollow — the next, a tall, dark maitre de ballet strode into her life. Carried off by Maxim di Corte to his Venetian palace, she became like a slave to the dance. But with Maxim, Lauri also began to understand the love behind true balletic expression. There was no doubt Maxim would make Lauri submit to him as a dancer. Would she do the same as a woman?

Description

Although she was a highly talented young dancer, Lauri knew that she had been incredibly lucky to have been ‘spotted’, while still at ballet school, by the great impresario Maxim di Corte, and offered a job in his company. But this was only the start of her carer. Lauri knew that before her lay years of unrelenting hard work, disappointments – and the formidable personality of Maxim di Corte himself. “I sensed something ruthless about him, “ Lauri told her Aunt Pat. “He moulds people to his tastes, and makes them submit whether they want to or not.” It was indeed likely that he would have no difficulty in making Lauri submit to him as a dancer – but what would be his influence over her as a woman?
