Description: Warning! This book has no murder, no car chases and nothing blows up, but you'll find hot alpha males, adult language and erotic scenes to scorch your blood. Did I mention fantastic food and a skyline designed by lovers of the impossible? In this first story in the Venetian Waters series, you'll meet divorceé Marlowe Osborne. Just because she's a sexual novice, doesn't mean she's not ready for a lusty adventure or two in Venice--the city of lust, sex and even love! She's here for much-needed R&R before returning to the States to begin practicing law. Riccardo Tron with smooth olive skin and espresso eyes, carries her to bed on their 2nd date. Next, he takes her to the Lido where they make love on the sand. Marco Barovier with thick blond hair and unusual grey eyes moves with more finesse. He leads Marlowe behind the scenes of his family's glass-blowing factory. When a storm forces them to spend the night on his boat, she makes her move. She's at a turning point and believes it's her last chance to find a best friend and lover wrapped in one gorgeous package. Tough challenge? Yep. But like other modern Cinderellas, she goes for it. Torn between these two lovers, Marlowe grows wary of Riccardo's dark mood swings. And Marco has complex marital chains binding him. Before meeting these primo males, one dark and moody, the other a golden Viking, she'd given up on herself as a sexual being. Marco shows her what "ladies first" really means arousing a kind of passion she'd never expected. But now, the lie she's lived for years is tearing her apart and might turn him against her. When Marco explains that his estranged wife is blackmailing him about his daughter from an earlier marriage, Marlowe is stunned. Two marriages! But she still wants this man. And if she expects to have a real partnership this time around, she must reveal her own disastrous past. If she fesses up, will he walk away from her?
