âââââ âThe Amalfi coast setting, the handsome grumpy Italian, this book has it all!!â
Lia Bathurst had always dreamed of escaping to the white sandy beaches and turquoise blue seas of the Amalfi coast â but that dream hadnât included meeting her real father. A father she had never even known about until a few weeks ago! Yet here she was, standing outside the gates of a gorgeous pink villa being refused entry by the insufferable â and insufferably handsome â Raphael Knight, her fatherâs business manager.
When an old black and white photo proves Liaâs claim to be true, Raph is determined to make sure this stranger, with her long caramel waves and infectious smile, doesnât have an ulterior motive. Even if that means not letting her out of his sight.
As temperatures rise, and not just from the heat of the Mediterranean sun, could Lia and Raphâs forced proximity lead to something more like⌠amore?
