Cover copy: LOVE FOR HIRE was what Rina Melton was buying. She was beautiful, fabulously rich and emotionally aroused - 24 hours a day. No one man could satisfy the fiery demands of her silken body, the unnatural hungers of her always-open lips, the fierce bite of her insatiable passions. So Rina started a stable of studs-men who would live in New York, and be available for her sinful pleasures. In pairs or singly, trios or small groups, she would call them, demand their attentions, and get what she needed-for a thousand dollars a month. And the head stud in her evil stable was Joe Traynor, a down and out bum whose wife had been a tramp and whose life had turned into hell. Until Rina came along, offering him money, security, and the honor of occasionally servicing THE QUEEN OF SIN!
