Family law attorney Gabriella Liakos has one true love, Elpitha Island, where she grew up and hopes someday to return. But Elpitha is in financial ruins, and Gabriella will do anything to keep it from falling into the wrong hands.
Duke Ryder is a savvy real estate investor set on making Elpitha into an exclusive resort. Unlike other investors, he's not scared of purchasing a property where one family has roots so deep they practically reach the ocean floor...until he meets his beautiful, stubborn, and enticing tour host―the daughter of the owner of most of the island.
Gabriella sets out to dissuade Duke from purchasing Elpitha, but Duke has other ideas. He wants Gabriella and the island. Duke's powerful seduction draws Gabriella in, but can a savvy investor who's used to glamour and glitz, and a woman interested in preserving the culture she adores find a happily ever after together?

Gabriella is called back home to help negotiate a sale of the family island with an investor. Gabriella has always loved the island but after living in New York City, it's hard to look at the island for what it really is verses the memories of her childhood.
Duke Ryder has instant connection with Gabriella once he meets her. He has vision for the island - but convincing Gabriella that he only has the best of interests in helping to revitalize the island and not give up on the obvious chemistry between the two of them is the biggest hurdle.
Get ready for another swoon worthy man in your life! Duke will steal your heart.
