Summary

Gianluca's life is empty. His City job, his seven-figure income, his glossy girlfriends - all have long ceased to satisfy him. His marriage is over, and he barely knows his young daughters. In search of serenity and a deeper purpose, he flees to Italy. But life on the sun-drenched Amalfi coast is not as peaceful as Luca anticipates...

I love Santa Montefiore audiobooks. Exotic places, lovable characters, well mostly! The narrator is extremely capable with many voices in her repertoire. A thoroughly enjoyable listen.

Romantic story beautifully written

This book has a beautiful story of romance and love and a little twist here and there to make you want to listen to more of the story. Very enjoyable and a great narrator too.

gripping & very atmospheric

Close your eyes and you can feel the heat of the afternoon and the scent of lemons. The storyline will keep you alert while the vivid desciption of the South of Italy will make you want to rush and book your next holiday there. The characters are very real and their story compelling, all the more intriguing by the mysterious Francesco.

Rather plodding tale

I did get to the end of this, but at times it was a close-run thing. In the end I just wanted to finish it and move on. I've listened to better books by Santa Montefiore and I was disappointed with this one, it seemed to be such a lovely setting and interesting premise
