Synopsis
Lina is spending the summer in Tuscany, but she isn’t in the mood for Italy’s famous sunshine and fairy-tale landscape. She’s only there because it was her mother’s dying wish that she get to know her father. But what kind of father isn’t around for sixteen years? All Lina wants to do is get back home.
But then she is given a journal that her mom had kept when she lived in Italy. Suddenly Lina’s uncovering a magical world of secret romances, art, and hidden bakeries. A world that inspires Lina, along with the ever-so-charming Ren, to follow in her mother’s footsteps and unearth a secret that has been kept for far too long. It’s a secret that will change everything she knew about her mother, her father—and even herself.
People come to Italy for love and gelato, someone tells her, but sometimes they discover much more.
Review
This was a sad and adorable YA contemporary romance. I loved Lina and her friendship with Ren. It was wonderful to learn about all the sights of Florence it felt at times that I was there and exploring with Lina. I wanted to go to Italy and Florence before but I want to go even more now. This was beautifully written and will definitely be continuing with book 2 Love & Luck.
