[Barbara Samuel] Night Of Fire(Book4You) - Plot & Excerpts
Against the graying stillness of evening the song of the nuns at vespers rang out, a sound Analise diCanio found heart wrenchingly sweet. It was the sound of peace and joy, and she longed to add her own voice to their number, singing praises to God. It was all she had ever wanted. But it was not to be. In the morning her father would come for her, and spirit her away to their villa in Firenze, where she would begin preparations for her marriage to Count Montevarchi. She did not remember him, but her mother had written a witless letter about the young count's beauty, and the great fortune Analise had found in union with such a charming, good-looking, young, rich man. She'd blathered for so long that Analise had given up and burned the parchment in despair. She did not wish to be wed. Ever. To anyone. From the time she was a tiny girl, she had only wanted one thing: to be a nun. To serve God as truly and honorably as she was able. Her father said that her beauty would be wasted in a convent.
