Máte v životě dostatek romantiky? Novinářce Kirsty Baileyové by asi nezbylo nic jiného, než na tuhle otázku odpovědět záporně. Základní předpoklad by tu sice byl – má stálého přítele – jenže když ten její Joe na láskyplná vyznání moc není. Zato je až příliš přesvědčený, že už má Kirsty jistou. Jenže ve chvíli, kdy Kirsty rezignuje a je ochotná se s tím, že se jí hlava už nikdy láskou nezatočí, smířit, pošle ji vedení časopisu, pro který pracuje, do majestátního benátského paláce, v němž sídlí takzvaná Akademie lásky. O té se toho sice hodně šušká, ale jen málokdo o ní ví něco určitějšího… A co tam má Kirsty dělat? Má dokázat teorii své nadřízené, že totiž tahle „škola pro nezadané“ není ve skutečnosti nic jiného než agentura zprostředkovávající sexuální služby – ovšem s italským přízvukem a honosnými skleněnými lustry. Ale co když se šéfredaktorka mýlí a Akademie lidem skutečně dokáže pomoci k opravdové amore, jak to slibuje ve svých propagačních materiálech? A odolá Kirsty pokušení romantických schůzek při měsíčku, o nichž snila už léta, nebo nechá svůj vztah s Joem odplut na některé gondole neznámo kam? Jestli se domníváte, že Casanova byl pěkný mizera, jenom počkejte, co si Cupid přichystal na Kirsty…
