Annotation:
This Restoration-era romance tells of the sexual adventures of Amber St. Clair, a beautiful and ambitious girl from a small English village. Determined to make it to the top of the social ladder, Amber bounces from man to man, eventually becoming the mistress of King Charles II. However, despite her many lovers, Amber only truly loves one man...the one man she can never have. Despite (or as a result of) being banned in Boston and denounced by the Hays Office when it was first published in 1944, FOREVER AMBER has sold more than 3 million copies, making it one the the best-selling romance novels of all time.

Praise
Salon
"It's not the explicitness of the sex that gives FOREVER AMBER its salacious kick, but the nonchalance of the book's attitude. Like her heroine, Winsor takes a sophisticated d?gag? attitude to all the infidelity going on. Marriage, in the book, is a social institution to be continued and respected, but hardly the death knell to the sexual appetites of either man or woman. Because being honest about your sexual appetites is one of the hardest things to do, FOREVER AMBER was shocking, and it's what will keep the book shocking -- and bracing." - Charles Taylor 06/02/2003
