From the Introduction:
"Some of the terrible desire in her communicated itself to him. He fought to get free, but her arms were like steel wires. His passion was no match for hers. The violence in his green eyes only stirred her more . . .
"When he tried to fall away, she moaned, 'No, Carlos, no. Don't stop, Carlos. For the love of God."
"For a moment, her breath rasping across her taut lips, she clung to him, her face twisted with hatred and desire."
From the back cover:
Bernice tried to live twice, by bringing death to one man that she might live with another.
Instead of the paradise she sought, she found herself in a self-created hell, married to the devil, and death in her life her portion.
A penetrating, relentless search into the soul of a woman.
