Publisher Description: Two women separated by time, but united by passion and art. In 1504, Cecilia, a lady of Venice, joins the court of Queen Caterina Cornaro-- where she catches the eye of a powerful stranger who will stop at nothing to make her his. Summer 1989, and Fern, on vacation in Italy to deal with a personal trauma, finds herself pulled back to the sixteenth century to be drawn inescapably into Cecilia's life. Intrigue and romance flourish at the Queen's court as Cecilia embarks on a passionate but ill-fated affair with a penniless painter. Luca, a twentieth century Italian architect, notices a resemblance between Fern and the girl in a painting by the artist, Giorgione. He helps Fern cope with her visions while falling increasingly under her spell. Echoes of the past begin to manifest themselves in the present through a series of startling coincidences, until past and present collide-- throwing both Fern and Cecilia into deathly danger. Can Fern stay safe and come to terms with her own past? This book was previously published as "Lady of Asolo". |
