Par Victoria Springfield. 2021
Shortlisted for the RNA's Joan Hessayon Award for New WritersSun, sea and spaghetti... Italy was Bluebell's dream destination, but taking…
her granny's place on the Loving and Knitting magazine competition holiday she'd won wasn't quite what she'd had in mind. For one thing she didn't knit and for the other...well being single probably discounted her from the love category too. But a free holiday is a free holiday and it's the perfect escape from her lacklustre life. Michela didn't think she'd be returning home to the Amalfi Coast so soon but a new job at her cousin's restaurant on the harbour of Positano is a dream gig, miles away from the grey London clouds. This time though, she vowed not to fall into old habits, Stefano was the past and now a bright future beckons. But under the Italian skies a whole host of possibilities await and maybe happy-ever-after is just a plane ride away... ***Readers are loving The Italian Holiday!'Loved this book - a charming tale set in Minori, on the beautiful Amalfi coast, a story of unlikely holiday companions, friendship and yes a touch of romance' FIVE STARS'A sunny feel-good book, with a colourful description of the Amalfi coast that will have you reaching for your passport!'
