This book made it to the Top 55 of the SYTYCW15 Contest with Harlequin! So check out this first chapter, but the whole book has been removed since I signed a contract with Solstice Publishing. Yep, that's right, it's coming out in full form on September 30, 2016!
When Lana Daniels, a simple girl from Georgia inherits an olive farm in Tuscany, her world is turned upside down. Now she has one year to decide to stay or sell. To make things more interesting, she meets the foreman, Romeo Russo. He's the most handsome, infuriating man she's ever met, but together they're like oil and water. When strange accidents start happening on the farm, they have to work together to solve the mystery. Can they find common ground as things heat up? As the year comes to an end, will she make the right choice?
This is my entry in the Harlequin #SYTYCW15 contest! I've stepped out of my usual cowboy romance writer mindset for this book. It's set in Tuscany and has been truly mind blowing as I've learned so much about Italy in the research for this book. Come check it out and take a trip with me to one of the most beautiful places on earth! Don't forget to fall in love with Romeo, I did ;)

That's Amore
In Tuscany, the air tastes of vino rosso and roses, and every evening feels like the beginning of a song. Isabella Marshall arrives at Villa delle Rosa expecting only a summer escape - a season of journals, quiet mornings, and the distant hum of village life. But under lantern-lit skies and firefly nights, she collides with Giuliano Moretti: stubborn, magnetic, and rooted to the vineyard like its oldest vines. What begins with clashes and stolen glances soon unfolds into Vespa rides through cypress-lined roads, laughter echoing in moonlit courtyards, and a kiss that feels like destiny whispered sempre. Yet beneath the beauty lies rivalry, family secrets, and the tug of America waiting across the sea. From feasts in the vineyard to festivals blazing with fireworks, Isabella must choose between the life she left behind and the dolce vita that has captured her soul. With roses blooming, Biscotto the golden retriever racing at her side, and love rising like lanterns into the Tuscan sky, That's Amore is a sun-drenched ode to passion, family, and the summer that changes everything.

A Vegas Mishap (#2)
I stared at the person sitting on the chair in front of me. That instant I realised that I didn't know this person at all. This was not the person I have been living with. This person just looked like that person. There was nothing same except the looks. The pose, the expression, the emotions in the voice, nothing matched. I couldn't believe that it is the same person. "Doesn't mean anything?" I asked with a low voice as anger filled me. "Yes, it was only a Vegas Mishap." ********************************************************************************** When Ophelia Russo traveled from Italy to the United States, she had no idea what was going to happen to her. Wanting to forget all her worries and the stress of managing a fast growing business, one night she finds herself in a bar in Las Vegas, and in the company of the very handsome businessman, Ethan Welsh, who himself is on a vacation for a break from his womanizing life in Greece. Two hot people, one lively night in Vegas and a few drinks down, what do you expect to happen? No, no. If it was just a one night stand that had happened, it wouldn't have been this bad. What had actually happened was no less than the worst nightmare for Ethan and Ophelia. Suddenly, it becomes more than just a vacation for the Italian girl and the Greek man when they wake up married to each other. What follows is a love story, you think? It's a messed-up destiny, I bet. After all, it can't be just A Vegas Mishap. ************************************************************************************************** Warning: Contains mature scenes and swearing.
