      From the very first touch...

      The moment suave businessman Dante Sanderson brushes hands with Lanelle Murphy, he can’t get her out of his head. The guarded beauty resists all of his polished attempts at seduction. To soften the pain in her past, she’s dedicated her life and family fortune to helping others, not chasing sexy millionaires like Dante.

      Something about Lanelle makes Dante want to open his heart like never before. He knows their encounters are destiny. Lanelle is sure their sparks mean another heartache is in the making. Yet her cherished new project—a state-of-the-art neonatal unit—brings them together. From charity ball dances to strolls in Milan, desire pushes her...right into his arms. But will Lanelle be able to seize this sweet second chance at love?

      Without warning, Dante invaded her space and tilted her into a dip. Gripping the shoulders of his tuxedo, she scowled into his smiling face as the blood rushed to her head. Before she could chastise him, he brought her upright.

      She hated surprises. Being out of control ranked number one on her never-to-do list. Dante threatened all of that. From the few stories Vanessa had told her about him, they were as different as a waltz and a tango. “Talk.”

      Should she be feeling the deep rumble of his laughter against her chest? When had he pulled her so close? She tried to create space between them. His hand splayed at her back made it impossible.

      “Do you ever loosen up?”

      She snapped her head up. Even though she was wearing stilettos, he loomed over her. “You’ve met me, what? All of twice? You have no idea who I am.”

      He leaned in close, his breath tickling her ear as he whispered, “But I’d like to.”

      All thoughts of why she’d come on the dance floor escaped as he pressed his cheek against hers. For once in her life Lanelle lost herself in the gentle sway of a man’s embrace.

      Dear Reader,

      Lanelle Murphy’s life hasn’t been easy. Wealth and success have helped to cushion the blows thrown her way, but tragedy is hard to endure no matter who you are. Lanelle has closed herself off from men, and so Dante Sanderson has no chance with her when they meet. Dante isn’t without his issues when it comes to previous relationships, either, but he’s willing to try.

      Dante realizes if he doesn’t do something drastic, he’ll never have Lanelle. He devises a trip to the most romantic country in the world—Dante’s words—to help her overcome whatever prevents her from pursuing a romantic relationship. When Dante discovers Lanelle’s secret, the doubts settle in.

      I hope you enjoy the emotional drama, laughter, romance and trip to Italy.
