For ninety days, Nadia must become his wife, Livia, who has vanished and must not be missed. In return, he will pay a fortune and clear the debt crushing her mother's café. It is a contract marriage with one rule that isn't in the contract: no touching behind closed doors.Nadia can mimic anyone, and soon she has Livia's voice, her walk, even her handwriting. But the staff weep with relief at her return, the family watches for the smallest mistake, and a hidden identity is hard to keep in a house full of people who loved the woman she is pretending to be.She hates Dario for the betrayal that bought her cooperation. He is determined to win back his wife. Yet the stand-in is making him forget who he is looking for, and falling from hate to love may be the most dangerous role Nadia has ever played.
