An Italian man... Julie Hallam is in Rome to work-but she's shocked to discover the identity of her new boss. Surely Rico Forza has brought her here for other reasons--perhaps to make her pay for the past... Eight years ago they'd been deliriously happy together, until the day that he'd found her gone. Julie has kept her reason for leaving a secret. But despite Rico's intention to have revenge, their mutual attraction is as strong as ever. Slowly Julie realizes that, underneath, Rico is as tenderhearted as he was before. Is now the time to introduce him to his son?
