Synopsis

She plays men for all they are worth…

Conrad returned home from the hospital to find his step-father Boyce carrying on with a young flirt. He knew Brenda from way back, and knows she is nothing but trouble. She only wants a man to prove to herself that she can get him. And Boyce is a prize catch—morally upright to a fault, but since the death of his wife, lonely and vulnerable.

Then Boyce marries her, and Brenda comes to live with them. That’s when she presents her true colors. Now that she’s broken Boyce, she turns her attentions to Conrad. Brenda uses all her wiles to tempt him, one moment the innocent, the next a total temptress. Conrad wants nothing to do with her. But Brenda has only just begun…
