More DescriptionGemma Jericho is an over-worked New York doctor with a handful of a teenage daughter, Livvie, and a mother who worries that Gemma has no life. So when her mother, Nonna, receives a mysterious letter telling her about an even more mysterious inheritance in her childhood village of Bella Piacere in Tuscany, the three of them throw caution and convention to the wind and leave for Italy. What they encounter is a crumbling old villa and a town divided – half believe the villa belongs to Ben Raphael, an unnervingly handsome American. As cultures clash, gossip soars, and intrigue unfolds, Gemma is caught up in the most disturbing – and delicious – trouble she’s ever had. At the same time, Nonna charms a man from her youth, and Livvie is having a ball with her new friends. With her summer in Tuscany Gemma finds the love that has eluded her all her life.
