“Some taxidermist had made the mistake of stuffing a pair of squirrels, dressing them in tiny suits and ties, and seating them at a chess board. The Whites had compounded the error by buying this horror.”

About series:
Hands down, Carol K. Carr is one of my favorite authors. I love India Black because she is fun. I appreciate her because she is smart enough to know when she needs help. And I want to be like her because she is independent enough to do her own thing; even when it goes against convention. These books are written as India’s memoirs. Hindsight is everything and India has a great power of observation as she looks back on her adventures.
About this book:
This novella-length prequel is available only in Kindle Edition and will introduce to you the fast-thinking heroine of the India Black series. This story takes place before India becomes the Madame of the Lotus and still is a working girl at another establishment. She manages to talk her way into a few days off to help out Philip Barrett, a suitor who needs a beautiful woman on his arm during a critical business meeting. Of course, things don’t go as planned.

Women Have Always Had Secrets…
“Yes, women have always had secrets and always will. I’m afraid men would be very distressed to learn what their darlings were thinking. Frankly, I don’t think men are strong enough to bear the shock.”
