Beneath a Sicilian Sun — Lynette Rees

Sparks ignite when love and lust collide beneath a Sicilian sun.



Journalist Joanne Smith encounters Sicilian millionaire Dante Alphonso while conducting an interview for Life Today magazine. Dante has been well known to the media for years, where constant scorn has been thrown upon the playboy lifestyle of his younger years. He detests that reputation as he would much prefer to be known for his charity work for The Children's Hope and Dream Foundation, an organization he established to help terminally ill children achieve their wishes.



Dante has already had his fingers burned by bloodhound journalists, but takes a chance on Joanne, inviting her to his home country to visit his vineyard and meet the Alphonso Family. Things begin to sizzle between them under the Sicilian sun as Joanne embraces their lifestyle.



A thorn in the side for Joanne is Dante's ex, Carla, a strong alpha female whose family owns a rival vineyard in the area. Carla betrayed Dante before, so trusting any woman is difficult for him.



However, Joanne has a secret she has kept from Dante, which is stopping her from growing close to him. The secret is revealed after he invites her on board his luxury yacht on the way to the island of Lipari.



Will their love for one another be strong enough to withstand the stormy seas that lie ahead? Or will it get washed up on the shore?
