5.0 out of 5 stars This author can do no wrong!!! 20 Jun 2008
By C. Y. Davidson VINE™ VOICE
Format:Mass Market Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
This novel had so much action, adventure, romance and humour packed into its pages; that while I was reading it I kept thinking what a great mini-series it would make.

Near the end of the American Civil war, spy Zahra Lafayette, known as the 'Butterfly', rescues Archer Le Veq. Eight years later she is sent by Harriet Tubman on one last mission to pose as a Madam and spy on white supremicists. Wearing a mask and using the name Domino she meets up with Archer Le Veq. He's attracted and intrigued but thinks she's a whore, and has no idea of her true identity.

Zahra doesn't have a very good opinion of the 'Gens de coleur' in general, and Le Veq is one. Though she does enjoy flirting with him she has a mission to complete, which threatens the health and wellbeing of her race. Zahra is a strong, resourceful character and the relationship between her and Le Veq is both hilarious and sweet. The plot is gripping and engrossing. I don't believe Ms Jenkins knows how to write a bad novel.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another One for the History Lady! 1 May 2006
By ASmoothJazzReader - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
It was good to be invited back to the House of Le Veq. Not only did we get another African American history lesson from Beverly Jenkins but we also got romance and some amusing situations. Again Ms Jenkins has done it again with her story of Archer Le Veq and Zahara (Butterfly/Madame Domino). Ms Jenkins can't write them fast enough for her fans, but when she does they are well worth the wait. Keep it up, Lady B.

5.0 out of 5 stars Archer and Zahra are too hot... 1 Jun 2006
By R. R. Hernandez - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Archer Le Veq's story was long awaited. He is the oh-so-sexy (and I do mean toe curling SEXY) younger brother of Raimond Le Veq (Indigo, Through the Storm) and he meets the seductive Zahra Lafayette also known as "the Butterfly."

The story centers around Archer's and Zahra's from-the-beginning attraction to one another, their lives as spies and a mission that brings them together. I was pleased to be able to catch up with Raimond, and his wife Sable, as well as Archer's other brothers, the "Brats" and their mother, Juliana.

As with all Beverly Jenkins books, this story (I read it in a day) is filled with excellent history lessons, intrigue and passionate, heart-pounding, mind-blowing love scenes that hold you until the last page. Archer was all that and then some!!

I hope to hear more about the other Le Veq siblings. I've read all Beverly's books and each one takes my breath away. I can't wait until her next one due in November. Until then, it may be a long summer!

Read this and all Beverly's books!

5.0 out of 5 stars Awwww.... Awesome!!! 4 May 2006
By Priscilla C. Johnson - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Beverly Jenkins has written another wonderful, romantic, phenomenal story.

Zahara LaFayette, known as the Butterfly, is asked by Harriett "Araminta" Tubman to assist the President with seeking out "Death Books". (I don't want to give too much away) Accepting the challenge, Zahara assumes the roll of Madame Domino and she travels to the City of New Orleans to begin her serach. While there she encounters Archer Le Veq, brother of Raimond Le Veq. (Through the Storm). Zahara rescued Archer in a prior mission and their paths are about to meet again.

Like all of Jenkins novels, the history is wonderful, the characters are fasinating, funny, mysterious and loving. The romance is breathtaking and it leaves you panting for more.

I can't wait until the next romance begins.

Peace and Blessings!!
