Margaux “Max” Adams has hit rock bottom. Her prized restaurant has folded, and she is left owing a lot of money. Her life takes a monumental turn when she receives a visit from the CIA. Turns out that Max looks exactly like Prime Minister Sofia Christiansen of Summerland, and they need Max to go to Rome as a body double until a threat to the PM can be neutralized. Arriving in Rome, Max discovers that her handler is the one man she’s always loved. Fighting secret assassins and impersonating a head of state are nothing compared to fighting the feelings that continue to grow as the two former lovers hide behind their disguises and indulge in their true desires. Who is trying to assassinate the prime minister, and how can a washed-up chef from Maine foil this international plot? Nothing is as it appears to be in this fast-paced action/mystery romance from Walker (
The Takedown).
VERDICT A sharply written novel with surprise comedic twists. Readers will enjoy this tale of two ex-lovers who are reunited by espionage and who ultimately find true love as they race through the beautiful streets of Italy, trying to stay alive.
