At twenty-one, Katharina Minola had an Oscar, adoring critics and fans, and was on track to be the most successful black actress of all time. Bad luck, bad choices, and a reputation for being a world-class diva stripped her of everything. But her new role for her old movie studio, Lucentio Pictures, could be the comeback she's waited for.

Pietro Lucentio knows how much courage and fire Katharina possesses. It's why he fell in love with her years ago--and it's why he's agreed to his movie mogul brother Vincenzo's crazy scheme. By luring her out into the bleak Canadian wilderness and secretly filming her every word and gesture, they plan to recapture the Katharina of old and make her a star all over again. But reviving Katharina's career won't be enough for Pietro. She's the one--the only one who's ever been able to tame his heart. And it's time he returned the favor. . .
