A compassionate nurse and a hardheaded playboy are locked in a battle of wills. Will she get through to him on time? 

When Kit Hart takes a job as a caretaker for the wealthy Leonardo Donato on his deathbed, she forms an instant bond with him. The once hardheaded man has changed in the face of death and opens up about regretting his estrangement from his eldest son, Luca. 

Compelled to help, Kit reaches out to Luca....and his cocky attitude and careless feelings about his father infuriate her from the moment she hears his annoyingly alluring voice. 

Luca is happy with his carefree, no-attachments lifestyle. He has no intention of reopening old wounds with his dad and definitely doesn't intend to let anyone into his closed-off heart. 

... But this feisty little woman won't give up, and the more she pushes, the more she gets under his skin. Despite his efforts, he can't seem to shake her.

Kit knows getting her heart involved is the last thing she should do, but if a broken heart is the price for a dying man's wish. She'll gladly pay it.
