When he objects at her wedding… Unaware he’ll have to take the groom’s place!
*
The sole reason I arrived in Sicily was to marry Antonio Adami. However, he dumped me two weeks before our wedding.
I could have accepted his decision with dignity, but doing so would have jeopardized plans four years in the making, so I took the advice of a virtual stranger instead.
Matteo Caruso, notorious bad boy, enforcer, and severe commitment phobe, wouldn’t know the first thing about relationships. Yet I clung to his word as gospel when a fiery kiss validated his theory.
Men want what they can’t have, and as soon as Matteo’s attention turned to me, my ex-fiancé’s interest became evident.
Antonio idolizes Matteo.
Antonio envies Matteo.
Antonio wants what Matteo has.
And now, apparently, that’s me.
With Antonio’s name scratched out on a marriage contract worth millions, and the Caruso reputation of being men of their word on the line, it’ll only be a matter of days before Antonio comes crawling back.
I just need to survive Matteo’s unexpected wit, charm, and devilishly wicked good looks to slide to the home plate of revenge.
It should be a walk in the park since the devil is easily distinguishable. Except this devil wears protectiveness like armor, and only heartless fools argue that protection isn’t the ultimate act of love.
