Once upon a Pillow

From the New York Times bestselling author Christina Dodd and USA Today bestselling author Connie Brockway comes an anthology of four connected short stories (The Medieval Story, The Elizabethan Story, The Regency Story, The Contemporary Story), about a magnificent bed and the lovers whose lives it affects from medieval times to present day. The book opens with Laurel Whitney leading the last tour group through a beautiful old English manor house on the last day the house will open to the public. All the furnishings have already been auctioned off, including the one item Laurel wishes she could have--the famous Masterson bed which has been in Masterson hands for countless generations. The tour group proves to be as fascinated by the big, beautiful bed as Laurel, so in response to their questions she tells how the bed affected the lives of some of the couples who slept in it during the course of English history. While Laurel relates romanticized versions of the stories to the group, the reader learns the truth, which is invariably funnier, more tempestuous and certainly sexier.Dodd, Christina is the author of 'Once upon a Pillow' with ISBN 9780743436809 and ISBN 0743436806.
