Nineteenth-century French novelist George Sand was more famous – and notorious – for her seemingly endless trail of lovers than she was for her seemingly endless stream of books. Chopin. Liszt. Musset. Merimée. But the man Sand called her greatest love was neither a pianist, nor a poet, nor a writer. He was a provincial lawyer she met at the age of 20 while vacationing with her husband and 2-year old son at a spa in the Pyrenees Mountains . Their affair was the most passionate of her life, yet it was never consummated. In the historically based novel, George Sand in Love: Seduced and Betrayed, her first and greatest lover returns after twenty years to claim what he believes still belongs to him.
