I’m so please to welcome my friend and very talented author Stacey Joy Netzel to the blog. Stacey is an Amazon and USA Today Bestselling author who writes award-winning contemporary romance and romantic suspense. She has a new romantic suspense book out in her fabulous Italy Intrigue Series, called Run to Rome. Here’s the blurb:
Love him and leave him.
Nine months ago, undercover detective, Ispettore Evalina Gallo, protected her heart the only way she knew how, never expecting to see her savior-turned-one-night-stand again. When he returns to Italia—now a person of interest in an investigation of a local organized crime family—her personal connection to the rugged American gets her assigned to the case.
A second chance to make things right.
With his mother’s pleas ringing in his ears, Ben Sanders plans to retrieve a stolen bible his father shipped to Italy thirteen years ago, and then get out as fast as he can. But with the arrival of the beautiful detective, he suspects his mother’s desire to right past wrongs might not be the whole truth.
Destiny will not be denied.
Now, less than twenty-four hours after entering the country, he’s getting shot at—again. In a race from Milan to Rome to find the precious book before anyone else, time is ticking for the one-time lovers. Attraction burns hotter than molten lava, but amid secrets and half-truths, they must learn to trust each other if they have any hope of a future together.
Sounds great, doesn’t it? The first book in the Italy Intrigue Series, Lost in Italy, is also a wonderful read for romantic suspense lovers. It was a Top Ten Amazon Bestseller, and was also nominated for Book of the Month at Long and Short Reviews. Stacey excels at writing believable, very human characters who find themselves in all kinds of trouble–a top notch recipe for great romantic suspense! I strongly suggest you check out her website to read blurbs and excerpts for all her books. You won’t be sorry!

I would ABSOLUTELY run to Rome! It’s one of my favorite places in the world…so much energy, so much history, beautiful people, amazing food – I have thrown my coin in the fountain so I am destined to return someday!
I am so with you, Lori!
Hello, Lori! I really hope you get that return trip soon. Thanks for coming by. 🙂
I’d love to visit Rome 🙂 Thanks for sharing!
One of my favorites, Erin – also London!
It is a wonderful city. I’d like more time there next time. (I tossed a coin in, too.)
Love Stacey, loved the characters in the first book and can’t wait to read this one. Of course, Italy is at the top of my bucket list!
Love you, too, Andrea! Thanks for coming by and I hope enjoy the second trip to Italy.

Hello BN! I agree, Rome is very nice. I’m now hoping to spend some time in Venice to research my 3rd book in Spring.
Italy is unquestionably my favorite country
in Europe, so I would love this book. Thank
you for the giveaway !
Best of luck, Susan! Thanks for coming by!
I would run to Paris- after living there 34 years ago – for 10 months- I’ve never been able to get back- would go and live the rest of my life in France if I could!!! AND would LOVE to win the book!!!!
Maribeth, I really hope you make it back someday. Until then, maybe a ‘book trip’ to Italy will pass the time. 🙂
I would love to go to Rome! There are so many places I’d love to go, and Italy is right at the top of the list.
I hope you get there, Emily! We should all get at least one dream vacation in our lifetime.
Rome sounds like a fabulous place to run to, maybe via Paris & London.
Yes, Mary, via those two cities would be great!
I love Rome. 🙂 And would love to see it!
Hope you get to see it, May. I still want to get back to see more of it.
Rome is a dream. History, culture, wonderful sights, food and walking forever.
Hellp, Pearl! What’s nice is you don’t even realize how much you’ve walked because there’s so much to see. 🙂
*hello*, not hellp LOL
Rome is fascinating, unique, special and I would enjoy the visit.
Ellie, for some reason your sentence makes me think of a nice, relaxing time soaking in the atmosphere. Sounds wonderful. 🙂
