Escape to the sun-soaked Italian village of Bellemilia, to golden sand and a glittering sea. Can Rose Loveheart break all of her carefully constructed rules for romance, and fall head over heels in love?
When Rose's best friend Luna calls her to tell her she's getting married to her holiday fling Marco in Italy, alarm bells, not wedding bells, start ringing. Before she can say arrivederci, Rose is booking her flights, packing her suitcase, and putting one objective at the top of her to-do list: save her friend and stop the wedding.
As she boards the plane, a devastatingly handsome guy makes a beeline for her. He just happens to be Ben Pearson, Marco's best man, and he's also an infuriating charmer, who has his sights set on making sure the wedding goes ahead. The two soon find themselves speeding through Italian backstreets towards Bellemilia, and their attraction to each other accelerates even faster than the drivers weaving their way along the cobbled streets. But Rose will not be distracted by delicately handmade pasta, wood-fired pizza, or by the tinkling of ice in a glass of Aperol Spritz. And she definitely won't be distracted by the very handsome Ben....
Falling for Ben is not on Rose's list, but will the sun on her skin and the gentle breeze caressing the lemon trees give her the encouragement she needs to take a chance on the unknown? Or will a disaster en route to the altar push them further apart?
With their best friends about to tie the knot, can Rose and Ben put their rivalry aside? Or will Rose discover there is happiness for both her friend and herself, if they follow their hearts?
This irresistible, sun-drenched story from bestselling author Donna Ashcroft will warm your heart and transport you to Italian shores. An addictive, enemies-to-lovers novel perfect for fans of Sarah Morgan, Jenny Colgan and Cathy Bramley.
