Fauna Trilogy Series by Denise Robins

Fauna, an exquisitely beautiful quadroon girl is sold into slavery in the West Indies. Rescued by Lord Pumphret, a noted dandy of the Georgian period, she is taken to England only to become the plaything and victim of those who make up Pumphret's circle until she meets and in the end marries the noble Frenchman, the Marquis de Charteller. It's as Madame la Marquise, who dazzles the society of Regency London, that she extracts her revenge for the way she was once used.

Fauna, the beautiful quadroon slave-girl heroine of Gold for the Gay Masters, had a daughter Fleur, as beautiful, as fatally captivating as herself. This is Fleur's story. The story of an arranged marriage to the forbidding Baron of Cadlington, of her love for the young artist Peveril, of the darkly-predicted black heir who is born to her, of her fiery attempts to find escape, revenge - and fulfilment, of the restless urges that burn in her fated blood... moreFauna, the beautiful quadroon slave-girl heroine of Gold for the Gay Masters, had a daughter Fleur, as beautiful, as fatally captivating as herself.
