He’s the old flame she’s tried to put out. But should they rekindle their love—one more time?
When bestselling romance novelist Olivia Sackville arrives at Venice’s prestigious winter literary festival, she’s prepared for everything except seeing Leo Greene—Britain’s number-one crime author and the man who’s forever turning her life upside down.
The festival’s demanding schedule keeps throwing them together, and in a city like Venice, there’s no escaping the past—or each other.
While Leo seems determined to prove he’s changed, Olivia battles against the magnetic pull between them—twenty years of almost-love have taught her that falling for Leo Greene only leads to heartbreak.
Between champagne receptions and foggy canal walks, their undeniable chemistry resurfaces.
But with both harbouring devastating secrets and the scars of old betrayals still fresh, they must decide if their story deserves a second draft—or if some loves are better left unfinished.
As the festival’s five days draw to a close, will they finally find the courage to write their own ending?
