SUMMARY - .From back cover I am lying in the bed of Thomas Melborne with my blonde tresses smoothed out upon silken pillows. Yes I am the mistress of the greatest advertising impresario in the Untied States London and Athens. I am Thelma Ledge.I was not alway Thelma Ledge. Thomas never knew the shocking secret i guarded from the world.Now agter years of hinding the strange truth i have discovered that Thomas needs more than a woman. perhaps i am the only person in the world who could satisfy all of Thomas' needs. I am more than a woman. I am more than a man. I am Thelma Ledge. from synopsis page Having become a woman I have learned it was easy to become a man. I knew both points of vantage and found them as nature might have told me equal and not opposite.While smoothing rose water over my knuckles and watching the first hardy snow upon my terraces I thought of Star Aspen's desire for marriage and tried to envision how I would live properly while caught between the male and female impulse. I could not believe it could be possible to live with Star on one side of the bed and Thomas on the other unless I Thelma Ledge could equally yes equally satisfy both of these people.
