But five years ago, Julianna's parents forced her to abandon the man she loved and marry a man she despised in order to save her family. Now recently widowed, she finds herself with the freedom to choose her own destiny for the first time in her life. And her first act of independence is to flout mourning conventions and escape unbearable relatives to spend the holidays her way; on the sunny south coast of France. Ethan, the Earl of Ardmore, has tried for the last five years to forget the defection of the woman he loved. He thought he had moved on and was ready to marry and start a family. But a chance encounter has brought Julianna back into his life, rekindling a desire that never died. He has every reason to distrust her, but feelings he can no longer deny compel him to pursue her. When an unexpected setback throws them together, a night of passionate lovemaking makes them realize they still love each other with the same intensity as before. But with betrayal, suspicion, and hurt still dividing them, how will they overcome their differences to embrace this second chance at love?From London to Nice, they will celebrate the season and each other on a trip that will change their lives forever.
