"I have never wanted to live in a book so badly! It's the perfect love story for a summer afternoon." -USA Today bestselling author Melanie Harlow An author finds inspiration in Tuscany in the form of a hot Italian single dad...
This summer is going to be a scorcher. A writer who's blocked--I'm a total cliche. Lucky for me, my agent has a cure that's an even bigger stereotype--a month at her villa in Tuscany, with nothing to do but find my muse. When he walks right in the front door, adorable son in tow, it feels like fate has finally done for me what it does for every other cliche'd girl I've seen in the movies. Except that he's completely off-limits. In this case, business and pleasure can never mix. Because Claudio is my agent's ex. Still, he's smart, charming, and wickedly sexy, plus a great father to Vanni. He's fast becoming the cure to all my writing woes. And it's clear he wants me as much as I want him. As the hot Italian summer wears on, it becomes harder and harder to resist. Succumbing to the heat even just one time could ruin my career. Or he could be exactly what I need. A NEW STANDALONE SINGLE DAD ROMANCE from the New York Times Bestselling author of A Nordic King and The Pact.

    A slow start to this kind of slow burn romance. But once things started, it got hot and stayed hot. Grace is an author. And when her writing partner dies, she has to find a way to write on her own. Her new agent sends her to Italy for some inspiration. There, she ends up meeting a sculptor, Claudio, and his young son. Grace and Claudio end up being an inspiration to each other and romance follows.

    Once Grace and Claudio give into their feelings, there’s no stopping them. Things get extra spicy. Grace struggles with her feelings a lot. But Claudio is pretty patient with her. He’s a good guy and loves her a lot.

    Vanni was the star of the book in my opinion. Claudio’s precocious son was hilarious.
