Product description
Contemporary and historical fiction meet in this love story set in present-day and Renaissance Italy.

Broken-hearted art student, Lydia Irvine, spends her days wandering the atmospheric streets of Florence, soaking up the culture in its galleries and museums. She develops a strong pull to one painting in particular, Titian's 'Venus of Urbino' in the Uffizi Gallery. Lydia frequently falls asleep in front of the painting and starts to believe the dreams she has in the gallery 'transport' her to another time and place.

Who is this woman she becomes in the dreams and what is she trying to tell Lydia? With the help of her charmingly handsome tutor, Vincenzo Tizzaro, she starts to research the life of the artist and becomes deeply embroiled in the mystery which is beginning to unfold. Through the dreams, Lydia learns far more about the Renaissance era than she ever could from the history books, but when her life is put in danger, has she taken it all a step too far?
