Elizabeth has wanted two things her entire life to bring her happiness and fulfilment - an Italian husband and lots of rosy-cheeked bambini. The first is ticked off now she's bagged dark and sexy Roberto, but the second is proving hard to achieve. So when Roberto loses his job and decided to leave London for Italy and the family business, Elizabeth hopes the change in lifestyle will help her relax and boost her chances of conceiving. Except, no matter how much ice cream she eats in the sun-drenched piazza, it's impossible to relax when her wily mother-in-law (the original black widow) seems hell-bent on destroying her marriage. The language barrier is proving tricky too, as is Roberto's beautiful, significant ex who practically lives next door. Is Elizabeth's desire for a baby enough to hold her marriage together or is it ripping it apart? And why is she suddenly craving the company of a gorgeous, blond American stranger? Her flirty, filthy thoughts about him are completely inappropriate. Temperatures are undeniably rising... and it's nothing to do with the Mediterranean sun.
