This story takes us from a mother's unusual plan to keep her daughter away from a fortune hunter, to a brothel in Rome and back to high society. Our poor heroine has to deal with all the machinations of her mother, her uncle and the man she meets in Rome.
reviewed Evening Star (aka Sweet Surrender) (Star Quartet, Bk 1) on
"Evening Star," formerly titled, "Sweet Surrender," first appeared in 1985. Now this novel is wehre it belongs - it's the first book in what has become the Star Quartet. In Midnight Star, the first book in the former Star Trilogy, you met Delaney Saxton in San Francisco in 1851. Even Star features his older brother, Alex Saxton, with Delaney making a cameo appearance.

Giana Van Cleve, the heroine, has fallen in love with a vicious fortune hunter. Her mother, the renowned shipowner and builder Aurora Van Cleve, is desperate to save her daughter. She agrees to support Giana's wedding if Giana agrees first to spend an unusal three months in Rome with her Uncle Daniele.

But Giana's uncle takes this bargain far beyond what Aurora ever imagined.
