Orphaned in Florence, Lucy Raymond takes the only employment
she can find, that of a castrato assistant to an art and antiquities dealer.
But as she grows into womanhood, her masquerade chafes, for it allows none of
the romance she craves.
In her loneliness she often visits the Piazza della
Signoria, where she gazes at the magnificent sculptures and dreams impossible

heat, she faints at the feet of an enormous sculpture, only to wake in the arms
of its living embodiment.
Allowing
herself to be seduced is the last thing Lucy should do. But Vido is warm and
vital and the living image of David,
so how can she resist?
