I met him on the worst day of my life.

After ditching my wedding and hopping on a flight to Rome, all I wanted was to forget about the burdens that had been placed on my shoulders since birth.

I never expected to meet him.

Dante Luciano.

Mysterious. Rugged. Alluring.

And possessing an Italian accent so toe-curling it should be illegal.

He's everything my cheating ex-fiancé isn't.

Which is precisely why I make a proposition I never would have in my former life.

It was just supposed to be one night.

It wasn't supposed to make me question everything.

Maybe I should have dug deeper into who he is.

Maybe I should have asked more questions.

Maybe I should have realized the truth that was staring at me through his familiar eyes.

They say you can never escape your past.

They were right...
