The story is set in Rome and follows the lives of two young women, Violet and Nina, who are brought together by fate but come from very different backgrounds.

Violet falls in love with a handsome Italian count, but their relationship is complicated by his past and his family's disapproval. Meanwhile, Nina is pursued by a wealthy American businessman who offers her a way out of poverty, but she must decide whether to follow her heart or her head.As the story unfolds, the women navigate the complexities of love, class, and culture in a city that is both beautiful and dangerous. Lane-Clarke's vivid descriptions of Rome bring the city to life, and her characters are complex and engaging.
