The ancient tradition of the Geisha has always called to westerner Kathlene Mallory. She has always found the beauty and grace of the Geisha to be mesmerizing so when her father needs to hide her after a failed attempt of leaving her with nuns…he leaves her with Simouye at the Look Back Tree tea room. Here Kathlene learns the fine art of being a Geisha while fighting her natural sensuality. Her time at the Look Back Tree is filled with all kinds of lessons both towards becoming a Geisha and those that are learned while growing up. When she finally finds herself preparing for the final ritual…her selling her virginity to a man…the man that has chosen her is not the one she finds herself dreaming of and desiring. But will her secret desire for a fellow westerner bring ruin to the tea house she has called home and reawaken the danger she was hiding from in the first place?

Ms. Bacarr’s story is wonderfully sensual, erotic and romantic. Her lyrical style or writing is very unique and adds to the story. Kathlene’s journey from young girl to Geisha is spell binding and highly entertaining. Kathlene is a very endearing character as is the rest of the well rounded cast of characters Ms. Bacarr has created. Ms. Bacarr is well on her way to being an extraordinary writer.
