On holiday in Italy with her overly protective mother, stunningly beautiful Clara Johnson meets her destiny in the form of Fabrizio Naccarelli, a handsome young Florentine.

But Clara’s mother has reason to be protective of her child, and divulging her secret could mean the end of Clara’s happiness.
