        "An obscene book scandal, which threatens to rock the fashionable Columbia Heights section of Brooklyn, was squashed yesterday when Florence Beery, author of the literature in question, appeared before District Attorney Dodd and was released when she promised to withdraw her book from circulation.
        About a week ago, Miss Alice Bush, a wealthy society woman of 10 Monroe Place, Brooklyn, was shipped collect a little thirty-three-page book entitled "For Love of Women" by Francois  Beery. Her maid paid the charges and retained the book.
        What Miss Bush discovered in "For Love of Women" and the fact that she learned some of her acquaintances had also received the book caused her to take the matter up with the District Attorney. 
        Purple passages that fairly breathed passion caused District Attorney Dodd to class "For Love of Women" as flagrantly obscene.
        During the course of the investigation, it was discovered that Florence Beery, author of the book, had arrived in New York from Hollywood about a month ago to lecture on the "Psychology of the Intermediate Sex." She registered at the hotel Cumberland and sent out a few copies of her book at $5 each.
        Florence Beery, who writes under the male name of Francois Beerie, is twenty-six years of age and is said to be pretty. She claims to be a cousin of Noah and Wallace Beery, screen stars, and it is said she has been married three times and divorced as many." - From the clipping of a New York newspaper dated January 6, 1924.

I also found this book listed on https//transreads.org in "An annotated bibliography of homosexuality". 

The hero of the story is 'Billy', a woman who has a passion for women.
