Tipping the velvet / Sarah Waters.

Summary:

Oyster girl, music hall star, rent boy and roué, Nan King has done it all. From her first love Kitty Butler, to her rich and exciting mistress Diana Lethaby, she's learned the hard way that life is a curious mix of magic and necessity, glamour and sweat. But what happens when she finally loses her heart to someone with neither the time nor the patience for the tangled web of masquerade--and a tangled romantic history of her own?
