About the Book

Spring arrives in Todi—but can hope bloom too?

Emma and Annarita welcome new guests to their Umbrian inn: a woman fleeing scandal, a reclusive artist seeking inspiration, a distant mother and son, a guarded writer, and a beloved friend passing through.

As the countryside comes alive, so do old wounds and fragile connections—testing whether this season will heal… or unravel.

About the Author

I write the women’s fiction stories I love to read, both contemporary and historic tales of women and the rich lives they lead along their journeys of self-discovery. A lifetime admirer and longtime resident of Italy, I’m often guilty of sneaking the bel paese into my stories.

"A restorative, sun-kissed vacation
in the Italian countryside on every page."
