A thieving beauty. A glass rose. A monstrous curse. Among the glittering masks of Venice, is anything quite what it seems? Faustina is a beauty and a thief, not necessarily in that order. She doesn't believe in magic, just luck, and hers has run out. The last thing she needs is to get roped into a ridiculous revenge plot by her brother-especially when that brother is Giacomo Casanova, Venice's most notorious libertine. Benedetto Bellini has never been particularly lucky. The fact that he's under a beastly curse proves that. Now he's got a second problem, one that's washed up on his island in its undergarments and attempted to steal his silverware. He finds Faustina intriguing and infuriating in equal measure. And, thanks to the curse, he's stuck with her. Faustina doesn't know what to make of the sweet, shy and deeply irritating man holding her captive. Does he have something sinister in mind, or is he just trying to keep her safe? And why won't he take off his mask?
