Beauty is in the eye of the beholder…and sometimes, it’s in the bedroom of an Italian painter.

Could Anya Ohmara’s life be any more mundane? Her love life is now non-existent. The only remote prospect is Derrick, her Mail Express deliveryman, and beside the fact that he’s incredibly good looking and not yet out of college, she knows next to nothing about him. Vanessa, her best friend, is still having a ball in sunny Costa Rica, while she’s stuck in a wet, sloppy spring back home. The one saving grace in her day-to-day is her job as a romance novelist, but lately, writing about sex just reminds her of exactly what she’s missing. The monthly trips via the time-traveling jewelry box Vanessa sent her at the beginning of the year are the only things Anya looks forward to, and they are definitely too few and far between.

Vanessa is falling farther and farther out of love with her job. She is ready to trade in the international travel, the once-upon-a-time hot flings with lonely tourists, and above all else, the memory of the friendship she used to share with Richard. After putting off going to dinner with him for a few weeks, she has no excuses left and nowhere to hide from him in their small camp—it’s time for her to face the music. Whatever he has in store for her, she’s sure she’ll be on the first plane back to the States.

April 15th can’t come fast enough—and once it does, neither can Anya. She finds herself in the midst of the Italian Renaissance, surrounded by the artistry, creativity, and passion for life so aptly embodied by Marcos, a poor but gifted painter. Will one night with Marcos be enough to give Anya the kick-start she needs to get out of her rut? One thing’s for certain: art history was never this much fun in school.

Excerpt

Love or Lust, which do you seek?

The last line of the poem in the jewelry box repeated in her mind. Anya's heart pounded. It's just a coincidence, she tried to convince herself. Electric shivers ran up and down her nerves, making her tremble. His mouth hovered just beyond hers. Why couldn't he just kiss her? The tingling in the pit of her stomach grew.

“What is it that in your heart you desire?” Marcos asked. He traced his fingertips down the side of her neck with featherlike touches.

In answer, she grabbed the back of his neck and crushed her lips against his. Love versus lust could be debated later, when she actually had some prospects. Right now, there was only lust. The feeling of his mouth against hers was everything his intent eyes had said it would be. His hands dropped from her neck to the small of her back, before caressing her hips and tugging her body toward his. She let him pull her into his lap, crushing the large pillow between them. His capable hands around her waist made her feel small and feminine, as did the gentle probing of his tongue in her mouth.

Snaking her arms around his shoulders, she began to knead the muscles beneath his shirt. Her lungs heaved with gasping breaths between hungry kisses until she didn't know if she was lightheaded from desire or lack of oxygen.

With obvious effort, Marcos pushed her back by the shoulders, separating their lips. “You would make a wise man forget his wits,” he murmured with a smile. He leaned his forehead against hers and looked at her through the tops of his eyes.

“Then forget yours,” she whispered in his ear. She ran her tongue along the edge of his ear, catching the lobe in her teeth. A sudden hardness against the back of her thigh responded.
