Blurb: 
She was to lie in the bed of Marie Antoinette and be crowned Empress of France. She was wanton, seductive and often deceitful-generous, extravagant, and incredibly greedy. She kept Napoleon waiting for her embrace until she had captured his heart. And then she offered him a passion he had never known before.
What was the secret of her ravishing charm, this Creole temptress whom Napoleon found irresistible? Barbara Cartland offers some startling answers as she tells the astonishing story of Josephine"s first disastrous marriage, her scandalous affairs and intrigues, her conquest of Napoleon, and their stormy life together.
