Publisher's Synopsis
The desire: instant! The diamond: for ever? New bride Paloma Morante can't ignore her pull of attraction to Daniele Barado. She also can't ignore the shame of his one-time rejection - or the fact that she had to agree to his convenient terms... Self-made tycoon Daniele will protect Paloma from her uncle's plan to steal her inheritance. In return, he'll gain the social standing he lost when his aristocratic mother abandoned him. Their vows are just for show. But the heat that's ignited behind the closed doors of their Tuscan palazzo is definitely, maddeningly, not!
