Product Description
Florence, Italy: Twenty three years ago

Jennifer Morgan left the city carrying a love child under a broken heart. A part of her heart remained forever sealed as she poured her energy into becoming an architect.

Florence, Italy: Today

Now one of the world’s preeminent architects, Jennifer stands within reach of the crowning jewel of her career. James Donovan, real-estate tycoon, has invited her to build his worldwide headquarters in Florence.

This should be a straight forward business deal, but Jennifer’s heart is in turmoil. Returning to Florence with her daughter reawakens the haunting pain of first love lost. While Jennifer struggles to regain her balance, she brushes off Donovan’s advances as a typical billionaire playboy’s game. How then does the controlling, manipulative mogul inspire the kind of intimacy Jennifer only thought possible with a man long gone? Can she trust Donovan with her career and her heart?

5.0 out of 5 stars It Happened in Florence, December 15, 2004

By	Anne K. Edwards "AKE" (Pennsylvania) - See all my reviews

Sometimes it's easier to design and construct a skyscraper than order one's life. A truth that Jennifer Morgan learns when she competes for the right to design James Donovan's latest building in Florence, Italy. The job takes her back to a city her heart never left and memories of a lost love soon threaten to overwhelm her. Once in Florence, she's challenged to put those memories in their proper place and step away from the safety net she has constructed for her heart, a challenge she's not sure she's ready to face. Talented Erin Aislinn brings true love to life in this delightful tale and has peopled it with great characters who seem to live and breathe. Set in a city where the present is overlapped by the past and future, love and life seem timeless, even as day passes into night. Recommended reading for any romantic. It Happened in Florence is a fun read and a very pleasant experience. Step into a very old city where new buildings are intended to be monuments to beauty and love lingers on every street corner. Enjoy.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Truly Beautiful Love Story, July 23, 2005

By	S. Emery "Shay" (Nebraska) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

It Happened in Florence is without a doubt my absolute favorite read in years. The romance between these pages will have you believing in true love and a happily ever after. Jennifer is an amazing character, and Donovan will win you over. What I loved the most about this book? It seemed so real. The story pulled me in and I was caught. What did I dislike? It had to end. A truly wonderful read. 5 stars does not do it justice.

By	T. Roe (Indiana) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I enjoyed IT HAPPENED IN FLORENCE. The love of Jennifer and David, then Jennifer and Donovan was very touching. Life can give you hard knocks but you have to pick youself up and go on like Jennifer did. It is very touching love story with a very different ending.
