First sentence: In the golden half-light of a midsummer's evening, the sort where any kind of magic can occur, and often does, in the midst of a party held in a wild and rambling garden, stood Pierre, teetering on highly unsuitable heels, surronded by a symphony of overripe roses.
Description: This old-fashioned romance for a modern world tells the story of Pierre, the daughter of a ravishing Italian soprano who is swept away in a glorious affair with a man who has "dancing eyes". Pierre is forced to flee to New York, but forgetting her beloved proves to be far harder than she imagines.
