After
her husband’s untimely demise, Marietta Gatti is banished from the family’s
villa by her spiteful mother-in-law. She returns to her hometown of Venice and
her only kin—a father she hasn’t spoken to since her forced marriage. Her hope
of making amends is crushed when she learns she is too late, for he recently
has died under suspicious circumstances. Grief-stricken, Marietta retraces her
father’s last night only to discover someone may have wanted him dead—and she
may be next. When the prime suspect turns out to be the father of the man she
is falling in love with, Marietta risks her future happiness and her life to
avenge the death of a man she once hated.
Elizabeth McKenna’s latest novel takes you back to eighteenth century Carnival,
where lovers meet discreetly, and masks make everyone equal.

The Author
Elizabeth McKenna works as a full-time technical writer/editor for
a large software company. Though her love of books reaches back to her
childhood, she had never read romance novels until one Christmas when her
sister gave her the latest bestseller by Nora Roberts. She was hooked from page
one (actually, she admits it was the first love scene). She had always wanted
to write fiction, so when a psychic told her she would write a book, she felt
obligated to give it a try. She combined her love of history, romance and a
happy ending to write her debut novel Cera's Place. Her short story, The
Gypsy Casts a Spell, is available for free on her website http://elizabethmckenna.com/. She hopes you will enjoy her latest novel, Venice in
the Moonlight, as much as others have enjoyed her previous work.
Elizabeth lives in Wisconsin with her understanding husband, two
beautiful daughters, and sassy Labrador. When she isn't writing, working, or
being a mom, she's sleeping.
