Leaving the heartache of sexual betrayal behind her in London, historian Sarah Thomson intends to make the most of her research trip to Venice. But she soon finds her attention consumed by mysterious millionaire Marco Donato. Despite their deepening relationship, however, the handsome playboy persists in playing a secretive game. What exactly is Marco hiding?
The subject of Sarah’s research is eighteenth-century Venetian Luciana Giordano.

But just what does the worldly stranger want to teach her in return?

A multi-layered erotic romance novel with a difference. If you loved Fifty Shades but don't just want to read another version of it, this is probably for you. I'm looking forward to seeing . . . THE GIRL BEHIND THE FAN!
A classy bit of spice.
This book is brilliantly written . . . I love a novel that can reach across time zones and places in history without making the readers feel confused or lost; Stella Knightley made it clear and enthralling to read about . . . If you want a book that is packed with passion, sex, excitement and a good story, then pick up this book today
THE GIRL BEHIND THE MASK is exceedingly enjoyable on so many levels . . . I'm anticipating the next in the trilogy for the story, the historical fiction, the familiarity of tentative sexual debauchery, the oh-so-English heroine.
I truly, truly ADORED this book. It's just incredibly passionate, interesting, compelling, addictive and has a story you can really sink your teeth into and get lost in for a few hours... It was beautifully written and impossible to put down. One of my favourite reads of the year. Romantic, captivating, passionate, unputdownable. Sleek and sexy with strong storyline that will have you desperate for the next.
