Book 2 in Series

A romantic Italian vacation. A missing fresco. And a dangerous antiquities thief.

Samantha Caine

Ten days in Naples with Antonio should be the vacation of a lifetime. But an invite to join my former FBI mentor on a case in Rome has me torn: Sexy new boyfriend versus my childhood dream of investigating art crimes.

When Antonio and I discover several ancient relics and critical equipment have been stolen from his worksite in Pompeii, it’s my opportunity to have both—if I can just convince him to work with me.

Antonio Ferraro, Ph.D.

After this vacation, Samantha and I will be on separate continents for four months. I want to focus on building our relationship, but her overwhelming need to find the missing antiquities makes me doubt her commitment. Despite my reservations, I agree to help her track them down.

We’ve got ten days and a city full of suspects, including a member of my family I can’t tell her about. Every step brings us closer to the thief. I fear it also brings us closer to a showdown which risks not just our future together—but her life.

Secrets, obsessions, and family loyalties collide in this romantic suspense mystery.
