The Olive Branch

A gorgeous summer romance set in Italy

De: Jo Thomas

Narrado por: Rachel Atkins

Escape to Italy with THE OLIVE BRANCH - the irresistible new novel from Jo Thomas, award-winning author of ebook runaway bestseller THE OYSTER CATCHER.

You can buy almost anything online these days. For Ruthie Collins, it was an Italian farmhouse.

Yet as she battles with a territorial goat and torrential rain just to get through the door of her new Italian home, the words of Ed, her ex, are ringing in her ears. She is daft, impetuous and irresponsible.

But Ruthie is determined to turn things around and live the dream.

First, though, she must win over her fiery neighbour, Marco Bellanouvo, and his tempestuous family...and then there's the small matter of running an olive farm. As the seasons change and new roots are put down, olives and romance might just flourish in the warmth of the Mediterranean sun.

Good Storyline, AWFUL Narrator

Would you try another book from Jo Thomas and/or Rachel Atkins?

I'd never listen to another book by this narrator.

Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Rachel Atkins?

No way! I spent the entire time turning up the volume and turning it back down. Atkins ruined this book for me. She alternated between yelling and whispering. Truly awful.

Love in Italia!

This is a lovely story! Made me want to go on an adventure. I could see the scenery unfolding before me. Bravo!

Darling
