Thanks for the additional info!
I have to admit I'm not thrilled by "Hel survived the destruction of Hiroshima to emerge as the world’s most artful lover" in the blurb either, which sounds sort of corny/cheap, but at $1.99 and with a couple of recommendations, WTH...I'll add it to my far-too-big TBR pile.

the sample isn't entirely indicative of the entire book imo...
