Cassie Robichaud is thirty-five and widowed. After a life filled with disappointments, her days are dull and gray - she waits tables at a rundown café in New Orleans, and every night she heads home to a one-bedroom apartment alone. But when she discovers a notebook left behind by a mysterious woman, Cassie's world will never be the same. The notebook's shocking and scandalous contents lead her to S.E.C.R.E.T., an underground society dedicated to helping women realize their wildest, darkest, and most intimate sexual fantasies. Cassie soon embarks on a erotic journey, completing ten fantasy-steps toward sexual fulfillment-discovering acceptance, courage, surrender, and more-with gorgeous men in rapturous scenarios beyond her imagination.
