Meg grows up into a messy and adventurous girl, forever running around the countryside of Jamaica instead of becoming a "proper" Englishwoman. That becomes even more apparent when her cousin Oriole arrives, who condemns her roguish behaviour and tries to teach her to be a Hilton. . . . .As a beautiful, developed, white teenager, she soon attracts attention. When she is caught one day bathing in a black man's river, she joins them in an erotic ceremony and disgusted by her, Oriole takes her to England to be a proper lady, where she seduces Oriole herself. . . . . A life of promiscuity and lust begins. . . . .There were so many partners in Meg Hilton's search for fulfilment: an aristocratic governess, a childhood sweetheart, a renegade black man, an English lord, a swaggering sea captain, a ruthless, rapacious husband and more. . . . .What, or who, will it take for her to feel fulfilled? . . . . This ravishing heiress to the Hilton pride, power, and passion broke every taboo to satisfy every need. . .See photos for additional content. . . Seller Inventory # 45101
