If Italy is on your travel bucket list, then you need to read this!
Synopsis
Julia Volpe’s Italian dream has turned into a nightmare.
Still living with her ex, Luca, a year after they’ve broken up, desperate to sell the dilapidated B&B that was meant to be their future, Jules knows she needs to leave. There are just two problems. Her passport has expired and she’s broke.
Not quite ready to ask her parents for help – at the ripe old age of twenty-seven – Jules decides to head as far away from Luca as she can to work on an olive farm until she has enough money to pay for her passport and a ticket back home.
Jules has sworn off love, but she hadn’t bargained on the beauty of Cividale del Friuli, the ancient Italian town on the banks of the gloriously blue Natisone river. As the community of farmers, neighbours and locals generously welcome her into their lives, Jules can feel her defences crumbling. But it’s when she meets Alex, broodingly handsome yet charmingly gallant, that Jules truly knows she’s in trouble. Because Alex has sworn off love too, and his reasons run deep enough for him to keep his word just as Jules is starting to reconsider her resistance to romance.
Live your very own Italian dream and let Leonie Mack whisk you away. Romantic, spell-binding, truly touching and perfect for all fans of Jill Mansell, Mandy Baggot and Sarah Morgan.
My Review
This book was such a whirlwind of emotions, from anxiety over a particular scene with torrential rain and a missing cat (Atilla), to that feeling of eager anticipation at the ending- will he or won't he? The pining and longing with the delicious slow burn - after a one night stand-turned into forced proximity due to (un)fortunate circumstances.
Berengario was an absolute kook, I adored him and his antics with his matchmaking schemes (can you say forced proximity - really forced) his nosy, curiosity and sneakiness just made the story😅
I, of course, loved Jules, Alex, Arco, Atilla- any book with fur kids is a 5 star from me.
Leonie once again hits the mark and has 'forced' me to add yet another stunning location to my travel bucket list.
