CIA operative Isabella Crox thought Venice had already cost her everything. Now the Agency is sending her straight into the heart of Sicily - and into the arms of the one man she was never supposed to trust again.
Posing as a wealthy art collector with her partner, Sam Mallory, at her side, Isabella must infiltrate the Moretti crime family and stop a bioweapons deal that could trigger a global catastrophe. But the deeper she goes into the Moretti family's world of loyalty, betrayal, and old-world power, the harder it becomes to separate the mission from the man - and the man from the mask he's wearing.
When a mole inside her own Agency threatens to unravel everything, and a Russian arms dealer with a body count of his own enters the picture, Isabella is forced to confront the one truth she's spent her whole career running from: the people closest to you are the ones with the most to hide.
Against the backdrop of golden vineyards, crumbling coastal towns, and a sun that sets in fire over the water, Isabella will have to decide how much of herself she's willing to lose to finish what she started - and whether love, in a life built on lies, can ever really survive the light of day.
Under the Sicilian Sun is the gripping second novel in the Isabella Crox series - a romantic suspense thriller of betrayal, family secrets, and a passion that refuses to stay buried, even under the weight of everything trying to destroy it.
