Chloë Thurlow's debut novel, A Girl's Adventure, proclaims the "new erotica"-- writing rooted in memorable characters and strong female leads in charge of their own destiny...her work described by Andrew Kaiser in The New Nude as "enticing, sexy and just plain fun to read."

Late for a vital interview on a sweltering day, casting agent Jean-Luc Cartier pours Milly some water and holds the glass to her lips. When the water soaks her blouse, he instructs her to take it off before putting her over his knee for a spanking. Her resulting orgasm--the first from such an experience--awakens her to the mysteries of discipline, launching her on an erotic journey that takes her from a convent school to a black magic coven in the heart of Cambridge academia and on into the secret world of fetishism and bondage on the dark side of a movie camera.
