Maya Killgore, a 23-year-old grad student, can’t stop thinking about Conor Harkness—her brother’s best friend, a brilliant biotech executive fifteen years older. Stuck together at a Sicilian villa for a wedding, desire collides with secrets, clichés twist into surprises, and a forbidden fling may change everything.
Problematic Summer Romance
Ali Hazelwood is a multi-published author—alas, of peer-reviewed articles about brain science, in which no one makes out and the ever after is not always happy. Originally from Italy, she lived in Germany and Japan before moving to the U.S. to pursue a Ph.D. in neuroscience. When Ali is not at work, she can be found crocheting, eating cake pops, or watching sci-fi movies with her three feline overlords (and her slightly-less-feline husband).
