Venetia is a young woman haunted by the echoes of love. She
has vowed never to give her heart to another man after a tragic event and a
lost love had left her with a pain so deep, she could never feel able to bring herself
to love again.
Paolo is known for his reputation as a womaniser with a
cloudy past. When he meets Venetia he is immediately attracted to her and quite
shocked at just how much he is affected by her. Venetia is drawn to Paolo as
much as she tries to stay away from him and avoid him. Fate seems to intervene when she has no
choice but to spend more time in his company. Is Venetia ready to let go of her
past and give into her feelings when her head is telling her one thing and her
heart another.
I was drawn into the romance and essence of this book from
page one. The story intrigued me with the combination of suspense and romance
to the story. The writing is very descriptive and an observing narrative of detail
not necessary at times to the story. I did keep having to remind myself that it
is in fact set in the modern day as there is a slightly old fashioned feel to
the story like it could be set years before, just like Heathcliff and Cathy
this story did move me to wuthering heights.
