A Fresh Pick at Fresh Fiction

When she learns she has a big Italian family she never knew about, a lonely woman travels to Sicily for a life-changing summer in the new romance from New York Times bestselling author Jennifer Probst.

Aurora York had it all together: loving parents, a steady relationship, and a promising career. But after she loses both parents unexpectedly, she can’t seem to stay on track any longer. Lonely and lost after a public meltdown that threatens her professional credibility, she’s shocked when DNA test results show a blood relative in Sicily. When her cousin reaches out online and begs her to come to Italy to meet everyone in person, Aurora makes the leap.

Aurora arrives in Sicily for a month, and there she meets a colorful, dynamic family steeped in tradition. The younger generation is fascinated by her social media fame in America, and even though her grandparents have more traditional viewpoints, Aurora begins to heal from her grief…and enjoys the attention of a kind and handsome Italian man.

But when the summer ends, a new opportunity calls her back to the States and her old habits threaten to reemerge. Will Aurora leave everything in Sicily she loves behind, or take the chance on a whole new future?

The family closeness and love in Sicily

The entire story was perfect with human weaknesses and striving to find real happiness and love.

Great storyline!

I really enjoyed this book. My grandparents being from Sicily in my mind was heartwarming.

Great story, fantastically narrated

Although a bit of a classic love story, l liked how it wasn't the end all be all. The descriptions of Sicily were amazing, as if l was there. If you're looking for a feel-good story about love, growth, and family connections, this is a book you want to read.

Enjoy the story but needed a few corrections

I love the story. The fact that she did not remain alone and had a very close net Sicilian family was wonderful. The one thing that I would give is constructive criticism is that the reader needed to research how to say certain words as a Sicilian reading the story she did not pronounce things correctly. Other than that, it was a very enjoyable read.

I felt like I was there!

I love a book when it can make me feel like I'm there with the main characters, and when I don't want it to end. I almost felt like a part of Aurora's family!

Sicilian life

I love the story. The author captures the essence of Sicilian life and focuses on what truly is important in life.

Such a beautiful story

I love this author. I have listened to her other books taking place in Italy. I have lived and visited in Italy often. I can relate to the lovely descriptions of the food and culture and scenes!

This was a very well written story and I came to love all the characters!

Good lessons how we cannot live our lives in the box of perfection because life will through curve balls. God has plans that we don’t understand until afterwords. Sometimes not even in this lifetime.

Struggling with this one

I have listened to several of her books and have enjoyed them. You know how it is when the narrator adds to and accentuates the story? This is not one of those times. The horrible Italian accent is so distracting I can hardly listen. I will finish it because I am not a quitter. But, ugh.

Bad accent's

Just was slow and boring l, story was not great. Sad and the whole story didn't surprise me or keep me on my edge. The best part was hearing about food
