One cursed sapphire. One guarded billionaire. One dangerous secret that could destroy them both.

When art historian and jeweler Emma Sinclair is invited to Tuscany to appraise a rare sapphire rumored to date back to the Italian Renaissance, she expects history… not danger.

And she certainly doesn't expect Maurizio Ferrante.

Powerful. Private. Untouchable.
The Italian billionaire is a man surrounded by whispers—and shadows.

Maurizio doesn't trust easily. Especially not when the gemstone Emma is investigating may be tied to his late fiancée… and a betrayal he never saw coming.

But as Emma uncovers hidden letters, forbidden love, and a legacy steeped in deception, one thing becomes clear:

The sapphire isn't just valuable. It's deadly.

Someone else is searching for it.
And they'll stop at nothing to claim it.

Forced into close quarters, Emma and Maurizio's undeniable attraction ignites into something far more dangerous than either expected.

Because falling in love was never part of the plan…

And in a world of secrets, power, and obsession—
love might be the most dangerous risk of all.

As the truth unravels, Emma and Maurizio must decide what they're willing to sacrifice—
for the sapphire…
and for each other.
