Their hearts are on thin ice this time around… Serena Moretti never wanted to go back to her small hometown. But one disastrous marriage later, and here she is, a single mom, doing her best to rebuild her life. Then he came back to town. Amato Rossi was Serena's first love. The man who destroyed her heart. The smart thing to do would be to stay away. Too bad fate (and her stupid heart) had other ideas… Amato Rossi didn’t expect to see Serena back in Cirella. He certainly didn’t think she’d help him acquire the land his sister wants. And he never thought the feelings they once shared would surface again. But…it happened. All of it. However, he should keep his distance. His business dealings are quickly going from complicated to potentially dangerous—and she has troubles (and secrets) of her own. He knows a second chance romance isn’t in the cards for them. Knowing, however, doesn’t keep his foolish soul from wanting more… Between Amato's homecoming and the sudden appearance of two new strangers in Cirella, things only get more interesting in the third book of the Cirella Bay series. Download your copy of Thin Ice & Foolish Desires today and get lost in this sweet and fun story of love, family, and starting over!

So, she was happy to organize her cousin’s wedding and make it the biggest event the small town of Cirella had ever seen. And while she did that, she could definitely solve the mystery of who hurt her patient’s nephew. But she wasn’t prepared to work with a real cop on the case…and she certainly wasn’t ready for her attraction to him… Detective Emiliano Segatti lives for his job, but right now, he could use a break from it. Still, when the star witness in his case against an infamous mafia boss escapes custody, his plans for a mellow vacation in Cirella are ruined.
