About the book
If only they'd met in other circumstances "Are you accusing me of lying?" Count Berini denied all knowledge of Petra's friend Sara, the girl he'd run off with. But Petra had seen them drive away together in Carlo's red Ferrari--and now Sara had disappeared. Petra's blood ran cold. Most people came to Venice to fall in love. Yet here she was, a mere au pair girl, accusing a respected Venetian count of kidnapping--seduction at the very least. Then gradually she was drawn in by Carlo's charm, wooed by his almost mesmerising masculinity to the point where she almost forgot the circumstances that had brought them together.
