About this title

Synopsis

'Totally hooked. Loving it. Pictorial, warm and evocative. Really entrancing and beautifully written'. Rula Lenska

When Lucy’s childhood sweetheart stands her up on their wedding day, she finds herself alone on a plane to a tropical location. Her dream of a bairn-filled future is gone in a heartbeat and the time it takes for her to listen to the rambling drunken voicemail he left calling off the wedding.

In Naples, Elena is recently widowed and trying to keep her husband’s family’s beloved and centuries old mozzarella factory afloat, whilst running her language school and bringing up their son. At risk of losing both businesses - and adding even more disruption to their life - she advertises a job and hopes for the best.

The stars seem to align and Elena and Lucy, each suffering from a very different sort of loss and loneliness, set about trying to lift the struggling business and each other.

A charming, tender and funny novel about the power of female friendships, the importance of letting go and the joys of eating pasta!

'Real heart, sunshine and a smattering of Italian, the story is a holiday in book form' People's Friend
