Like having sex with a White Court vampire?

That is fair.  I'd think that she might think she's got enough strength of will to resist a Wampire, but that same thing applies for having a Coin.  Especially with Nic to serve as an example.

I still doubt it, but the control thing seems less of an argument than I originally figured.

I actually agree with you on her not giving up her freedom easily.  It does seem though that for wizards who get in the mix of things they find themselves in situations where their choices are limited.  So I could see her (like Harry) getting into a situation where she gives up freedom in exchange for some kind of power because she feels she has no other options (even if there are)

I mean it could be just me but:

"It is relevant," Lasciel said, "because of the circumstances of your birth - because of why you were born, Harry. Your mother found the strength to escape Lord Raith for a reason."

This sounds to me like she's speaking about someone she knew personally.

apgrey:
  It does seem possible Margaret LeFae was a holder of Lasciel's coin.  There are two things that are against that idea though.
  Neither Nicodemus nor Lasciel ever told Harry his mother was a previous holder.  Why not?  It would have been a strong argument to persuade Harry to try it as well.
  The other thing is, with Lasciel's help, Margaret should not have been vulnerable to Lord Raith.  Lasciel should have been able to block the sex whammy thing for her.
