Our Italian Summer

De: Jennifer Probst

Narrado por: Cassandra Campbell, Holly Linneman, Suzanne Toren

Three generations of women in the Ferrari family must heal the broken pieces of their lives on a trip of a lifetime through picturesque Italy from New York Times bestselling author Jennifer Probst

Workaholic, career-obsessed Francesca is fiercely independent and successful in all areas of her life except one: family. She struggles to make time for her relationship with her teenage daughter, Allegra, and the two have become practically strangers to each other. When Allegra hangs out with a new crowd and is arrested for drug possession, Francesca gives in to her mother's wish that they take one epic summer vacation to trace their family roots in Italy. She just never expected to face a choice that might change the course of her life. . .

Allegra wants to make her grandmother happy, but she hates the idea of forced time with her mother and vows to fight every step of the ridiculous tour, until a young man on the verge of priesthood begins to show her the power of acceptance, healing, and the heartbreaking complications of love.

Sophia knows her girls are in trouble. A summer filled with the possibility for change is what they all desperately need. Among the ruins of ancient Rome, the small churches of Assisi, and the rolling hills of Tuscany, Sophia hopes to show her girls that the bonds of family are everything, and to remind them that they can always lean on one another, before it's too late.

Worth every minute

This book was exactly what I needed in order to open up my heart and mind to exactly what the author hoped for- forgiveness, second chances, hope, adventure, and priorities. It’s an amazing reminder that it’s never too late to turn things around. This story is so thoughtfully written and incredibly heartfelt and raw. I recommend it to all women

Feel Good Love Story

This book was Beautiful it was a Love story that focused on Love of Family, Love of Tradition, Love of the Heart and Love of Beauty. The journey these 3 women took touched my heart and inspired me to make sure that I visit Naples in my lifetime. My daughter has just returned from Naples and while she was there I listened to this book and from her pictures and stories it’s as was told in this book! Looking forward to seeking out my roots in Naples🇮🇹
