She's read all about romance but never found love. Can an unplanned detour open a new chapter in her life?

At almost 40, Melanie Allen needs a change. She takes a week off from her uneventful life and flies to Montenegro, across the sea from the Italian boot. Encountering a man who's everything she's not, Melanie acts impulsively for the very first time and ditches the tour bus to stay behind.

Theo Martinovic is gorgeous, confident, and a town local. Their paths cross again when Melanie steps in to help him during an emergency with his young nephew.

Theo befriends her, and as they spend more time together, she's the one who gets carried away and falls for him—despite doubting he could ever feel the same and sensing he's holding back wounds of his own.

When her time in the place that feels like home is nearly over, Melanie is head over heels in love. Can she start a new life in a new place at the risk of experiencing the same old heartbreak, or will Theo reciprocate the three words that she let slip?

Can love be found in unexpected places and with the unlikeliest of people?
