Stefano’s waited years to make her his.

Joanna’s not convinced she’s worth the fight.

The mountains gave Stefano a fresh start. But she’s the only thing missing.

Years ago, Stefano Conti left Australia behind to carve out a new life in the rugged beauty of Bormio, nestled deep in the Italian Alps. Now, with the grand opening of the bar of his dreams, Bar Stefano, he finally has everything he’s ever wanted -except Joanna Gentile.

They’ve been best friends forever. Secret lovers for years. But she refuses to believe they could be more.

Tonight was supposed to change that. Until Joanna walks into his bar opening… on another man’s arm.

He has one night to convince his Jo that no matter how hard she fights it—

They are inevitable. They work.

Joanna has spent her entire life proving she’s nothing like her mother.

Joanna Gentile doesn’t run. She doesn’t leave. She doesn’t wreck lives.

Except every time she packs her bags for medical school, she feels the sting of abandonment all over again—this time, she’s the one walking away from the people who need her. From her twin siblings. From her Stef.

He deserves someone whole. Someone who isn’t afraid to stay. Someone who isn’t her.

But Stefano Conti has never been one to walk away from a challenge …

And this time, he’s playing for keeps.

"Jo and Stef's journey swept me up like a gondola gliding through Venetian mist-tender, turbulent, and achingly real. With every page, their emotions poured forth like a vintage red uncorked after a long wait, all set against the cinematic splendour of the Italian Alps.
