Description
A runway model. A room full of policy nerds. One unforgettable summer.
Italian runway model Isabella Rossi is desperate for an escape. After rejecting her boyfriend's very public proposal, she flees Milan for what she believes is a glamorous modeling job in New York City.
There's just one problem... The "gig" turns out to be a Model United Nations conference.
Thanks to visa issues-and her own stubborn pride-Isabella is stuck debating geopolitics with absurdly intense delegates in drab business suits who take global policy far too seriously. Worst of all is the French delegate with his long speeches, infuriatingly sharp opinions, and unfairly gorgeous eyes. He's annoying. And she's definitely staying away from him.
Armed with charm, confidence, and a fierce competitive streak, Isabella discovers she's surprisingly good at negotiations. After all, she's spent her life getting people to do what she wants-and diplomacy isn't all that different.
As sparks fly and tensions rise, can a model from Milan bring home the coveted Peace Cup? Or will she lose both the trophy and her heart in one unforgettable summer?
Perfect for fans of romantic comedies, opposites-attract love stories, slow-burn chemistry, and strong, witty heroines.

Person
Libby Tanner grew up in a small town in Northern California that would be charming in a novel but felt suffocating as a teenager. Yes, she left as fast as she could, and yes, she misses it very much. In college Libby earned a degree in Communications. She wishes she would have studied creative writing instead of playing it safe, but also remembers she had student loans to pay off. She is the mother of four sweet hooligans and is married to the world's sexiest accountant (the world's only sexy accountant?). Her dream date would be eating crab legs in a hot air balloon over a vineyard.
