A woman’s Sicilian vacation quickly turns from a dream-come-true to a beautiful nightmare when she crosses paths with the powerful head of a crime family, entangling them in a dangerous love affair in this instant USA TODAY bestseller that inspired the hit Netflix original movie.
Laura Biel’s dream vacation in Sicily with her boyfriend turns into a nightmare when she is kidnapped by the head of a powerful Sicilian crime family. Don Massimo Torricelli is young, handsome, and determined to possess her at all costs. His reason? During an earlier attempt on his life, a vision appeared before his eyes: a beautiful woman, identical to Laura. After surviving the attack, he vows that he will find this dream woman and make her his own. No matter what.
For 365 days, Massimo will keep Laura captive in his palatial estate and attempt to win her heart. If she doesn’t fall in love with him, he will let her go. But if she tries to escape at any point, he will track her down and kill her entire family.
As the time passes, a precarious, sinfully addictive relationship forms between them, but forces outside their control threaten to tear them apart in this raw and unputdownable love story unlike any other.
