Iаn Flеmіng understood it perfectly. While the world will always remember him for his most famous creation, the suave and sophisticated Jаmеs Bоnd, perhaps his more influential achievement was in creating Bоnd Gіrls, the villains and love interests that captivated audiences almost as much as 007 himself did.

Dare we say it...she leaves us shaken AND stirred. More...
