At a ball, he’s seduced by a masked stranger, and Clive gives into the pleasures about which he has always wondered. Damiano takes Clive to heights he’s never experienced, and in the process, Clive falls in love with the mysterious Italian. Then one night, Damiano fails to appear at a planned rendezvous, and Clive wonders if the man is done playing with him.

Heartbroken and sick, Clive returns to England, wondering if Damiano’s confession of love is real or simply the magic of Carnival where all things are hidden behind masks...

When Geoff meets Dr. Enzio di Salvatore, his guide to the island, he thinks maybe he could investigate something else, like every inch of that Italian stud. Little does he know, though, Enzio has a history with the spirits on the island and they demand their due.

Geoff may discover that dealing with angry spirits might end up being easier than falling in love...
