A new romantic suspense novel set in Italy, where not even the Tuscan sun can fully expose the dark and shadowy underbelly...

Hayley Wolfe will do anything to keep her father healthy and comfortable for as long as possible. When she is offered a hefty contract in return for some international travel, she jumps at the chance, and the security the paycheque provides. Though the beautiful Tuscan villa doesn't look like a hotbed of crime, nor its owner a deviant and evil man, looks can be deceiving...

Investigator Ethan MacDonald will do anything to keep his young daughter Katy safe from his ex–wife's family, even from beautiful young women who infiltrate his home. Hayley claims to have arrived under false pretenses, but Ethan well knows the lengths his in–laws will go to to get what they want.

With Katy's life on the line, there's no time for misplaced confidence. Will Ethan and Hayley risk everything for their families by learning to trust a stranger?
