Thank you for the free book, Berkley Romance!
When Max is offered a large amount of money to pose as a double for a foreign prime minister, she can hardly say no. However, the prime minister’s life is at risk due to assassins who are determined to find her, which means Max is also in danger. If that isn’t bad enough, her main form of protection is from the man who broke her heart years ago, Flynn, who is now a CIA agent. She hopes to get through the vacation in one piece but things get more complicated by the minute.
This is a fun and lighthearted adventure rom com that moves at a fast pace. I enjoyed the Italian setting and the second chance romance of Flynn and Max. I expected it to be a bit outlandish and was able to suspend disbelief for most of the story, but toward the end, I had a bit of trouble putting skepticism aside with just how wild things got. I think those who enjoy an escapist adventure, a bit of intrigue and mystery, and a fun romance will love this book.
