Sumérgete en el fascinante mundo de las cortesanas del siglo XVIII y XIX, mujeres que ascendieron desde la pobreza hasta alcanzar poder, independencia y riqueza. Katie Hickman narra las historias de Sophia Baddeley, Elizabeth Armistead, Harriette Wilson, Cora Pearl y Catherine Walters, explorando sus vidas llenas de glamour, seducción e intrigas. Estas mujeres no solo eran admiradas por su belleza, sino también por su ingenio, cultura e influencia en la sociedad y la moda de la época.
