The Man with the Umbrella - S. C. Principale - Bog

A Venice love story will bring Valentina's past and present together... and may hold her future, too.

Valentina Costa has spent years untangling history's secrets as a genealogist and research assistant for a university. For once, she's going to make work personal by using her Venice vacation to find out the fate of a long-lost family member. Did Dominic Costa die a war hero-or steal away in shame? Her family longs to know.
Normally focused on names and dates, Valentina can't help daydreaming about a romantic Italian rendezvous, especially when a mysterious man named Nico offers to help her on her search. Something about him seems instantly familiar and there's no denying he has style to die for.
But it's the friendly, charming Gianni who comes to her rescue during a rainy night in Venice.
Now instead of spending her vacation alone, Valentina unexpectedly has to juggle her heart as well as her research. Days seem to lead her to Nico's side, while stormy nights keep throwing her toward Gianni. It never rains unless it pours. Is it a sign that she needs to pick the man with the umbrella?
