Ten Men

A bestseller in the UK, this novel follows an unnamed woman as she encounters ten men-also unnamed, aside from the nicknames she gives them. There is The Virgin, who wants her as his first but not necessarily his last; The Billionaire, a walking bankroll with a bankrupt heart; The Director, who won't leave his wife; The Lover, who's out of her head when he's out of her bed; and a half dozen more-none of whom manage to meet her needs.

As the years pass and she journeys from an island off France to Texas to England and beyond, our heroine learns a little bit more with each man she meets-and ultimately must figure out what's missing in herself.
