The Prince of CupsAn exile returning to Florence to enter into a forced political marriage, Antonio de Fabiani is surrounded by enemies in a place where trust is lethal, love just another manner of betrayal, and seduction a game. Until he meets Veronica Danti, the gypsy whose touch can heal and whose kiss sets his soul afire, demanding a total surrender he cannot deny. |
