She came to Italy to escape her past. She never expected to meet the one man who could unravel her future.
Six months after the loss of her husband, Hope Santa-Maria is drowning in grief and silence. Desperate for space to breathe, she flees to Florence-a city of art, beauty, and distraction. But when a chance encounter at the Uffizi Gallery leads her to Damien Volkov, everything begins to shift.
He's younger. Mysterious. Intense in a way that awakens something long buried inside her. What begins as a quiet conversation becomes a whirlwind of late-night dinners, stolen glances, and an undeniable connection. But Damien isn't just a beautiful distraction-he's hiding something beneath the surface... and so is Hope.
Back in New York, memories of Italy refuse to fade. And the secret Hope carries threatens to upend everything she thought she'd left behind.
A powerful, slow-burning romance about grief, rediscovery, and the risks we take when we dare to feel again-this novel will sweep you off your feet and leave you breathless.

But every word he speaks chips away at the walls she built to survive. She was meant to be a transaction. Instead, she becomes his undoing.
