Prince of Cups — Gayle Feyrer

Driven by desires she had never before known, Veronica Danti melted in the stranger's arms. He was her destiny, the lover foreseen in the tarot cards, the arrogant aristocrat who paid her in golden coin. She was married, he was betrothed -- unions arranged by man, mocked by lust. She would risk everything to reach his heart -- even if it meant giving her body...and soul...

He was the exile, returned to Florence to enter into a forced political marriage -- his dying mother's last request. Antonio di Fabiani was surrounded by enemies in Savonarola's city, which seethed with holy intrigue and Borgia spies. Here trust was lethal, love just another manner of betrayal, and seduction merely a game. Until he met Veronica, the Gypsy temptress whose touch could heal, and whose kiss set his soul afire, demanding a total surrender he could not deny...

Here amid a backdrop of assassination and seething intrigue, is the tumultuous story of a love ordained by destiny, and a union no earthly power could destroy.
