Book News: One Night in Italy by Lucy Diamond

I am in love with the cover of Lucy Diamond's new book, One Night in Italy! It's due out on June 5th, and I really love Lucy's books, they are always a highlight of my summer reading. This one sounds like a fantastic read, and perhaps this can bring a bit of Italian sunshine into our damp squib of a British summer!

You can pre-order One Night in Italy as an eBook or a paperback now.

"Anna has never known her dad, and with her mum stubbornly refusing to talk about him, she's given up all hope. But then she stumbles across a clue that her father is Italian, and feels as if a spark has been lit. Soon Anna's baking focaccia and whipping up tiramisu, enrolling for an Italian class and even considering dusting off her passport to go and find her dad in person.

Fiercely independent, Sophie has travelled the world and now lives in Sorrento. When family circumstances force her back to England for the first time in years, she has to face the tensions that drove her away so long ago. She takes a part-time job teaching Italian to make ends meet, vowing to jet off again just as soon as possible. But sometimes life - and love - can surprise you.

Catherine doesn't know who she is any more. Her children have left for university, her husband has left for another woman and her world feels empty. At an Italian evening class she makes a fresh start by finding Anna and Sophie - but she's going to need courage as well as friends when she discovers her husband's lies run even deeper than his infidelity . . .

As the truth emerges about one fateful summer in Italy, Anna, Catherine and Sophie have to confront secrets and betrayals from the past. With new friendships and love affairs blossoming in the most unlikely places, this year looks set to be one they'll never forget."
