The naïf, young Tessa, has Ioved the composer Lewis aIl her life - it's a Iove that is deep, seIfIess and all-encompassing. Lewis, meanwhile, meets and marries Tessa's cousin, Florence, whose love for Lewis is more flawed, and more human. LoyaI to his bride, Lewis nonetheIess finds himself drawn to Tessa more and more. Her boundless faith in Lewis transforms Tessa, first into Lewis muse and then into something more; whiIe FIorence's jealousies Iock her into a mortal battle she can't hope to win.
