Art, Love, and Other Miracles by Kiki Astor

Catalina Cervantes may have thought that finishing the renovations on her new art gallery, might be the most extraordinary thing to happen to her on this Day of the Dead, a year after her husband’s death…but as she walks into her new space, there’s her husband’s ghost. 

Later that day a twisted ankle leads to a meet cute with Sebastian Espinoza, the devastatingly attractive scion of a wealthy family that has a bad reputation due to their dishonest business dealings. As luck would have it, he owns the neighboring art gallery. Still, Catalina can’t repress the attraction. When she gets a surprise opportunity to participate in art Basel in Miami, proposed to her by Eduardo Smith, the future Mexican ambassador to the United States, who seems to have predatory ulterior motives, it’s such a good opportunity that Catalina feels she can’t pass it up. The twist: Sebastian Espinoza’s is going to be the other gallery sharing a booth. But it gets worse. Upon arrival in Miami. Catalina realizes that Eduardo had assumed they would be sharing a hotel room, which leads to Sebastian offering his room, so now they’re sharing a bed. The sexual tension is palpable, even though Catalina is still supposedly pining after her late husband and Sebastian is supposedly dating Bibi, a gorgeous supermodel and mosaic artist, and it ramps up when they are forced into a fake relationship to placate Eduardo. As the pair work together to navigate the obstacles thrown at them during a few days in Miami, will they manage to fight the attraction or will they give into it? Is Sebastian a better man than Catalina’s husband ever was?
