In the latest Harlequin Forever by Michelle Douglas, an artist gets more than she bargained for when she accepts a commission from her millionaire ex and winds up as his fake fiancée!

A diamond deal with the italian.

When artist Hallie is hired by her ex, millionaire Lucas, to paint a family portrait, she’s determined not to mix business with pleasure. But she’s unable to ignore Lucas in the confines of his luxurious Venetian palazzo, and their still-sizzling attraction threatens to resurface. So when Lucas changes the terms of their arrangement, asking Hallie to be his fake fiancée in order to fulfill his grandfather’s dying wish, she can’t say no. But while Hallie can’t erase the heartbreak of their past, can Lucas tempt her with a new future together — one that isn’t just for show?
