- Book 1 of 4: The Italian Saga
Italy, 1987. A porn magazine at nine?!
Leda cannot unsee it, and (of course!) the deed happened right before First Communion. How will the devout tomboy confess that to a Catholic priest?
Nico will pay!
Nico just moved north from Sicily. Aggressive, unsettling, and unsettled, he scares everyone away.
Except Leda.
So begins the most moving and unlikely friendship in this humorous, addictive, coming-of-age novel delving into the depths of self-discovery and Italian culture.
Nonbinary Anne of Green Gables meets the Divine Secrets of the Ya Ya Sisterhood in the gorgeous countryside of Northern Italy. If you love badass heroines, swooping emotions, humor, and characters that feel like friends, you'll love this addictive family saga for all ages.
Each novel in the series can be read as a stand-alone.
Based on a true story.
Come to Italy. Read it now.

About the Author
A bookworm from birth, she wrote throughout her childhood and won two short story competitions in Italy in her teens. Gaia is an avid traveler and many of her adventures are an inspiration for her fiction. Mostly she is passionate about people and the struggles they face to embrace life. Her highest hope is to reach and help as many as she can through her writing as well as her teaching. She authored the Italian Saga, an irreverent series of humorous and insightful novels taking place against the gorgeous backdrop of Northern Italy and the sci-fi fantasy "Linked-Will Empathy Save the United Terrestrial Democracy?". The books, light-hearted and funny at first sight, deal with issues like sexuality, divorce, friendship, abuse, first love, and self-discovery.
Among her favorite authors are J.K. Rowling, Jandy Nelson, Neil Gaiman, Chuck Palahniuk, Kurt Vonnegut, J.R.R. Tolkien, and Antoine de Saint Exupèry.
