It's worked for almost a year, which is how long she needs to fund her own business. Maybe Grace would have succeeded if unwed mother Carina Donati hadn't dumped her son on Luc and taken off for Italy. Not that Tony is Luc's. No, Tony belongs to Luc's youngest brother (of five), Brand, who takes off after Carina.When the police show up, Luc tells them he and Grace are engaged and babysitting his nephew for a few hours for his brother and sister-in-law.

Who knew, considering the Salvatores haven't fathered a daughter in more generations than Toni has toes.

And Grace would...if only Luc loved her. There's only one way to convince her and that is to say the three little words he's never said to any other woman: I love you. Will he…or won't he?
