Publisher's Synopsis
When two university sweethearts from the American mid-west take a year abroad to study in Paris and Rome, they fall in love with Europe and set their sights on finding careers that will allow them to return to fulfil their dreams of a life on the Continent only to find that the challenges of the real world in Europe drive them apart. Bonnie Winters, a slender, young, blonde-haired 5'5" sexy beauty and Robert Schaffer, a 6'2" handsome, athletically built but aristocratic looking young man complete their studies in the US and then find themselves unwittingly involved in a lethal insider foreign exchange dealing ring and Cold War politics when they return to Europe with Robert taking posts in Italy with his international bank and Bonnie accepting teaching positions at prestigious Italian art institutes. While Robert becomes consumed with a desire to expose the people at the heart of the criminal conspiracy, neglects his wife and is unfaithful to her, Bonnie lusts for more spice in her sexual life and falls into the arms of three men, one a young buck at the heart of the conspiracy, another older renowned artist, and the third, a student much younger then herself and her and Robert's lives change forever. The story begins when Bonnie and Robert meet in their Freshman Year at the University of Michigan in the mid-1960's, fall in love, marry and develop a lust for all things European and ends with their lives dramatically changed and leading them in totally different directions.
