My Valentine in Verona

By Tess Rini

Can a fake engagement heal a family feud - and uncover a love neither expected?

Francesca Ricci, an Italian princess in title only, has mastered the art of exuding effortless elegance. But behind her polished fa ade is a woman yearning for a life far removed from her family's social expectations. Massimo "Max" Valentini, may share Italian roots, but that's where the similarities end. Raised in Seattle, Max favors plaid shirts, baseball games, and sports an easygoing charm.

When Francesca and Max strike a bold deal to fake an engagement, it's all about a shared goal: reuniting their feuding grandparents, once partners in a legendary Milan fashion house.

As they navigate old rivalries, buried insecurities, and the enchanting historic streets of Verona, their carefully staged act begins to feel all too real. Max uncovers the vulnerable, genuine woman behind Francesca's chic exterior, while she discovers the warmth and steady strength hidden beneath his confident, laid-back demeanor.

Set against the romantic beauty of Verona, this tender tale of love, family, and rediscovery shows that sometimes the most unexpected partnerships can lead to the most profound connections.
