I was in the mood for some light reading and came across this. I'm not a huge romance fan but this was pretty good. The author wrote a sequel called "Peach" that I am going to find next. This is a thick book - nearly 600 pages - but it reads quickly. Good fun! (

Good read - one you won't want to put down.

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0440146623, Paperback)

With only her exotic beauty, seductive innocence, pride, and fiery spirit, Leonie came from the provinces to find her future in Paris. From the shame of music halls, she rose to international fame singing songs of love and longing, straight from the heart. From Paris to the Cote d'Azur, from New York to Brazil, from Cuba to Cairo, she moved in a dazzling world of money, passion, and power--a world darkened only by the relentlessly hunger of one man's obsession--a man determined to possess her . . . a man who could never lover her, never let her go . . . .
