A gorgeous young Italian, with nowhere to go . . .

"She knows she shouldn't take him home . . ."

Picking up the pieces of her life after the death of her beloved husband, linguist and teacher Ramona Elise can't help but be charmed by her gorgeous new student. And when he calls her "Mona Lisa" she just about loses her heart . . .
