The Painter's Muse: Renaissance Erotica Historical Fiction by Lucinda Ravenswood, R.A. Mariana
Isabella Farense, a noblewoman of high standing and higher aspirations, stands on the cusp of a politically advantageous marriage. Her world collides with that of Lorenzo Bartolini, a painter whose brush strokes are as daring as his unacknowledged talent, igniting a forbidden flame that threatens to scorch the pillars of their society.

As Isabella becomes the muse for Lorenzo’s masterpieces, their secret rendezvous transcends the canvas, crafting a love affair as passionate as it is perilous. In the shadowed corridors of power and decadence, their romance kindles a firestorm of scandal, drawing the eyes and whispers of a city that thrives on intrigue.

Entangled in the web of Florentine politics, where every friend could be a spy and every enemy, a potential ally, they find an unexpected player in Bianca, a courtesan whose knowledge of the city’s secrets is surpassed only by her ability to manipulate its movers and shakers. Her schemes could be the lovers' salvation or the final stroke in their downfall.

In this game of power, passion, and painted facades, Isabella and Lorenzo must navigate a treacherous path. Between the strokes of Lorenzo’s brush and the shadows of Florentine politics, lies a truth that could elevate them to the pantheon of the city’s legends or doom them to obscurity and disgrace. The Painter's Muse is a tale of desire and danger, art and ambition, where the next brushstroke could be as deadly as the next dagger thrust.
