About the book
When heiress Natalie Cavanaugh arrives at the Villa Rosamunda on the Amalfi coast of Italy, falling in love is not on her agenda--particularly not with a man whose dubious family connections have made him notorious. Demetrio Bertoluzzi is tall, dark and gorgeous. Why he works single-handedly to restore his old family home remains as much a mystery as how he funds the job. Natalie finds herself drawn to him like a moth to the flame. But to surrender her innocence to this man could be her undoing....
