historical lbgt romance

Italy, 1688.

The Rose Court is a haven for lost and damaged souls- the girls of the court are from every walk of life, from threatened aristocrats' daughters to children rescued from the brothels of Venice. Serafina and Angelo have been there ever since their parents' murder, and their return to reality looks over the horizon. 

Serafina doesn't want to leave the only home she knows, but when a mysterious girl, Nina, turns up on their doorstep, the outside world seems unavoidable as she follows Nina down dangerous paths into the mystery of her past- which is more tangled up in Nina's than she could have possibly imagined. 

Angelo can't wait to leave the place he thinks is too easy on him- except for one thing: he's fallen head over heels in love with his best friend, Ezra, a boy who doesn't let anyone touch him. And when Ezra comes to him with an unorthodox proposition, Angelo can't help but accept. 

As Serafina is led away from the Court, Angelo is drawn back into it- but how long can things go on before they reach a breaking point? Can Serafina learn to face reality? Can Angelo learn to commit to something permanent? Will the family of the Rose Court be able to survive the hard times ahead, or will it all fall apart?All Rights Reserved
