I've read a few of Mona Risk's books and have enjoyed them.  This book was no exception.  This is the story of Ashley and Stefano who find themselves against each other trying to defend their respective families.  Stefano's grandma used to be in love with Ashley's grandfather.  Since her grandfather left Greece, Stefano's family hated Ashley's granfather for abandoning his grandma.After his grandma died, Stefano wanted to demolish the old and decrepit Pink Villa to build a large resort that would bring lots of tourist into town and provide the locals with new and higher paying jobs.  Ashley was here to defend her grandfather's ownership of the villa and block the demolition.  When Stefano saw Ashley for the first time, he was immediately attracted to her.  He didn't want to ruin the chance of getting to know her better so he didn't tell her he knew who she was.  They get involved and soon she discovers his deception.  Stefano was completely smitten with her and didn't want to lose her so he did everything he could to keep her close by even if it included compromising on the construction.Story was cute, I loved the setting and wish I could be in Greece.  I liked the characters, but I wasn't in love with them completely.  Seemed to me that they both fell in love after their one day together, which took away from the wooing, getting to know each other better outside the bedroom, etc.  Maybe if I met the hunk from the cover I would be in love with him after one day!  :)
