Chapter One
The outside of Magnolias had been painted a cool, ethereal blue in the seventies, many years before Seth Callahan bought the mansion. The house took its name from the abundance of beautiful flowering trees that grew along one side of the estate, and no one could remember the place ever being called anything else. As the sun set, the blue became tinged with a multitude of almost transparent pinks that shimmered in the hot summer air. That’s when the silver-white fairy lights would appear twinkling in the grounds of Magnolias, and soft strains of music drifted on the evening breeze.
Seth had fallen in love with the mansion and surrounding estate as soon as he saw it. The whole place evoked fantasies in Seth’s lonely heart, and filled it with hope of erotic nights. Seth’s somber moods lifted there, and it wasn’t long before he found a way to share this sexy atmosphere with the beautiful and curious people in town.

Seth watched from his seat on the balcony as the stream of people arrived at the house party. He’d divided his massive French Colonial style house into public and private, much like his life. Seth had built two reputations since arriving from New York four years earlier, one as a high-achieving businessman, and the other as the host of an elite sex club that operated under the guise of house parties. Seth liked to sit on the wraparound balcony of Magnolias, his Louisiana home, with a glass of iced tea, and check out the people who’d come to sample swinging, swapping, and the sensual dance of flirting that led to sex if they chose.
He swished the remains of the pale golden liquid around. It had warmed in the humid air, and Seth placed the tall glass on the table. Enticing laughter reached him. He stood to lean over the balcony rail and look more closely at his guests.
That’s when he saw her, the pale-green silk of her dress blown against her body in a revealing caress by the evening breeze. The thin fabric outlined her nipples and flat stomach. It clung to her as if in love with the perfection of her figure. Seth’s gaze followed the flow of her long dark hair as tendrils lifted and swept her breasts. He sighed with pleasure. The sight of her made his cock stir. She’s lovely, sexy body. Wonder who she is? Maybe Pearl knows. Who’s that she’s with?
He scrutinized her two male companions as they bent their heads to listen to whatever she said—Beau and Simon Duchamp. What’s she doing with them? Seth knew them from a business deal, not that he or they would acknowledge that in the club, should they run into one another. No one knew each other once they’d floated in through the decorative front door on a cloud of sexual need and anticipation. This code underpinned the club’s success and popularity.
The beautiful woman disappeared from view under the balcony overhang. Seth experienced a sense of loss in the pit of his stomach. He adjusted his collar and tie, grabbed his pale linen jacket, and strode along the balcony to the back steps, which led to the garden. He liked to walk into the party through the front door of the house the same as everyone else. Seth stalked along the tiled garden path, slipping on his jacket so that he arrived at the entrance looking unruffled as usual, at least on the outside. Tonight flutters plagued his stomach. His heart beat faster. Seth wanted another glimpse of the lovely woman in the green silk dress as if his life depended on it.
He cruised through the rooms, his gaze raking over the groups of people, and his thoughts tumbled. It’s been a long time since just the sight of a woman had such an effect on me. It’s exhilarating. Out of habit, he took a glass of mint julip from a silver tray as the server hovered close and smiled an acknowledgement. The glass chilled his palm with its generous scoop of crushed ice. He stopped his searching, seduced by the frosty glass, and tasted the drink. The aroma of bourbon and spearmint hit him before the taste, and then he swallowed the refreshing mouthful.
He saw something green with his peripheral vision and headed there. It wasn’t the gorgeous dress adorning his quarry, but a shirttail whisked up as the woman wearing the item swung her hips in time to the drum rhythm of the low music
