My Very Italian Holiday

After losing the love of her life in a tragic accident, 30-year-old Gina is struggling. Running her little guesthouse in the hills of the Lake District keeps her going, but her heart isn’t in it anymore.

When new guest Fabio Garcia arrives, Gina feels a spark that reminds her she’s alive. He’s tall, and dark, with startling blue eyes and makes her laugh for the first time in … forever. Guilt holds her back, but friends and a glass (or three) of wine, push her into his arms.

It’s nothing serious which, Gina realises, is exactly what she needs, so when he invites her to his family’s crumbling Italian villa on the sparkling waters of Lake Como, she says yes. It’s hard not to fall for the grand, sandstone Villa Lucia with its faded wallpaper, green shutters and Fabio, serving fresh coffee in bed.

Just when Gina thinks she might be ready to open her heart again, Fabio’s sister reveals a secret that sends her packing. And it’s a relief. Because she was right to walk away … wasn’t she?

Ideal for readers interested in romance.
