Produktbeschreibung
Clio is a shy art history student determined to do her family duty. Guillermo is a sexy, reckless architect with the power to tempt her to follow her heart. Can these opposites fight their simmering attraction or will they answer the allure that will bring them bliss? Ecstasy is the only thing on Clio's mind. Specifically, ecstasy as portrayed in the Renaissance art of Italy. She's clinging to her last chance at achieving the college degree of her father's dreams, when she meets fast-living, handsome-as-sin Italian architect Guillermo. They come from two different worlds, but share a deep passion for history and beauty. Clio can't resist being drawn into Guillermo's problems when his family's beautiful ancestral villa is at risk of being sold to a rich celebrity who will carelessly destroy its rich history. She tries to keep it professional and fights the urge to surrender to Guillermo's smouldering seduction. Can Clio juggle her PhD thesis, a too-hot-to-handle romance, and rescue a priceless piece of history or will everything end in disaster? Chatelaine Grand Prize winner. Next Generation Indie Award finalist. Steamy and romantic, the Art of Enchantment is a beautifully written, evocative love story of art, history and passion set in Romantic Tuscany, about having the courage to answer the call of your true nature and finding family and home where you truly belong.
Autorenporträt
Always eager to fill blank pages and empty canvases with ideas swirling in her head, MaryAnn set out to write emotionally engaging stories that walk a tight rope between intelligent Women's Fiction and heart-warming Romance. A polymath who studied Fine Arts, Urbanism, Architecture and Gerontology at university on both coasts of Canada, she turned to her first love, writing stories, when she realized she could have more fun with fewer rules to follow as an author, than working in an office as an architect, or in a university as a researcher. When not writing, she meditates while hiking wooded mountain trails, does yoga and Pilates to fend off decrepitude, reads eclectically, contemplates wormholes, experiments with painting abstract expressionism, kills plants and tries not to burn dinner while solving her next plot problem. Now that her chick has flown the coop, Clarke lives on beautiful Vancouver Island, Canada with her husband and cats. Although she knows she lives in Paradise, she still loves traveling the world in search of romance, art, good food and new story ideas. MaryAnn Clarke is a Chatelaine Grand Prize winner for The Art of Enchantment, first in the Life is a Journey series about young women on journeys abroad who discover themselves and fall in love while getting embroiled in someone else's problems. Her Having it All series is about professional women struggling to balance the challenge and fulfillment of their careers with their search for identity, love, family and home.
