Vonnie, I can give a few names of books that would definitely classify as racy, but you need to give some more details if you can.

 

[Pop Daddy]

[jamsmom]

I would like to know some of these......hummmmmm

 

[Wagamama]

i can't give more details...

all i know is its a classic (like mrs. dalloway, Mark Twain, etc. )

i think it has the word countess in the title..

and its set in the victorian era.

i know its not much to go on, i've been searching the amazon and bn sites and can't find it...

Well, that was more info, but I don't have a clue. Maybe someone else can help.

Von, could it be the Age of Innocence by Edith Wharton?

Been awhile since I read it, but I recall it being a story about a Countess. .
