Nevertheless, they are as close as the wind on a spider's web. Bill and Marion have loved each other passionately since they were seventeen and thirteen, but only in a limited measure: always a summer, a modest stretch of some months, shorter or longer depending on their unfailing ability to irritate the heck out of each other.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen Bill's gallery manager suggests painting nudes to give his career a much-needed boost, he goes with it. He plans to paint a series of nudes. Deeply, Bill wants to paint Marion, but when he approaches her about the notion, she rebuffs him -- her rejection forces him to find another model.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTurmoil and jealousy haunt their love when Bill selects Libby for his paintings. She's younger. She's mysterious. She's troubled.
