Cleo Arendse: You know how almost every movie set in Italy seems to be about a woman who travels to Tuscany and is swept off her feet by a charming, gorgeous but arrogant aristocrat? Well, that's not this story.

Luca Fioravanti:
Challenge accepted.

British Banker Cleo Arendse is nothing like the women lawyer Luca Fioravanti is used to - both because she's only in Tuscany to oversee his family vineyard's business and because she's impervious to the charm that has never failed him before now.

But Luca has never shied from a challenge, and when circumstances arise that allow him to step in as Cleo's knight in shining armour, he leaps...right into a fake marriage! The romance may be a ruse but the passion burning between Luca and Cleo is very, very real, and as the 'honeymoon' glow envelops the pair, all bets are off...

Beat the winter blues and escape to Italy for a brand new spicy marriage of convenience romance novel for 2024!

About the Author

Once upon a time, Romy dreamed of living inside one of the fairy tales in her head. As a 2016 finalist for the Romance Writers of America (R) RITA Award, and as Chairperson of ROSA (Romance writers Organisation of South Africa), all of Romy's dreams have come true. She is not only a multi-published author, but as a writing coach and teacher, she now helps make other writers' dreams come true too.

Though Romy's heart lies in Europe, she doesn't cope well with the cold, so she lives in sunny South Africa, in the City of Gold, Johannesburg, where she is mom to two little princesses and a pet dragon (okay, he's a bearded dragon, but that counts!)

She writes contemporary fairy tale romances and short 1920s historical romances.
