The beautifully steamy romance of Ardent told from the enigmatic billionaire’s point of view. Billionaire Francesco Giordano resides darkly within haunting memories that burn deep with roots surrounding his notorious family in Italy. Such wounds of anguish have built barriers around his tormented soul, fixing a firm and unwavering belief within him that true love and bliss absolutely does not exist. He disregards all things pertaining to the heart and rather sets his mind on one thing, redeeming and upholding the Giordano name, according to his family’s wishes. He leads his life with numbness in soul, devoted to carry out his duty, driven to build all of the wealth in the world in order to make up for his past failures. Yet upon meeting a gentle artist named Natalia Garcia, her softness and grace gradually begins to lead him out of the darkness.
