The Mask of Love

A half-English, masked but clearly beautiful young girl flees an arranged marriage to an aging Marchese into the gaiety and chaos of the Venice Carnival. A dashingly handsome Marquis in Venice on a top-secret mission for the English Prime Minister meets her briefly.
A terrible storm that blows the Marquis’s yacht off course and into the hands of murderous and lustful Barbary pirates. A hastily arranged prison Wedding to save her from a Fate worse than death.
And a kiss that changes two lives forever.
