Det var som om Lillie Langtry var född till att vara blickfånget i varje rum. Hon var en skådespelerska av rang och firad skönhetsdrottning. Framgångsrik var bara förnamnet. Hennes dragningskraft bland männen var självklar, nästan hypnotisk. Hon levde för dagen med en stor aptit på livet, men hennes popularitet bland männen blev nästan slentrianmässig. Hon var djupt olycklig i sitt första äktenskap och när prinsen av Wales, senare Edward VII av England, tillkännagav Lillie Langtry som sin skyddsling och älskarinna formades en meningsfull vänskap mellan de båda som skulle vara tills hans död.

Hey there. I'm Von, your not-so-average girl with a flair for the unconventional. My hobbies?

You're missing out. My family is what I think most people would consider normal. A doting father, loving mother, twin older brothers who are a pain in my ass, the usual. Yeah, we have a family business that requires you to know how to shoot a gun, bribe officials, and pay off the cops, but everyone's family does that.

"Rummet hade gräddvita tapeter med stora röda rosor och förgylld stuckatur. Den tjocka heltäckningsmattan var också som ett hav av grädde och den gamla franska rokokosängen, bred och pösande, var det likaså. Kuddarna var guldfärgade. Och det var också amorinen som hängde i ett band från taket. På ena vägen satt en väldig guldspegel som kunde spegla sängens fröjder eller den person i sin nakenhet som steg i eller ur bädden. Gardinerna i röd sammet kunde försänka rummet i ett romantiskt dunkel".

"Det var inte likt henne att tänka så om Göran. Hon hade anpassat sig till deras gemensamma tillvaro som hon en gång frivilligt valt att dela. Hon hade gjort den till en vana. En vana står man ut med, för den blir med tiden så gott som omärklig. Och vad beklagade hon sig över? Hon hade fått det trygga liv hon förmodligen inte var i stånd att leva utan och den gode okomplicerade man som hon helhjärtat kunde hålla av och respektera." Eva älskar sin make Göran, en förståndig man som var läkare till yrket. Deras liv tillsammans är tryggt, stabilt och alldeles förutsägbart.
