Let's start with the setting of this story: Italian countryside. Its description is so in detail I feel like I was there viewing it with my own eyes! As for Erika, I truly felt for her when her life gets upended & she has to go to Italy. I don't like how quickly she makes a decision at first, she does seem very overwhelmed & I'm sure anyone would be. I like the flow of getting to know the main characters in the story & how each person plays a part. One character I didn't like from the start is Tiffany, she just comes off as better than Erika & it's just rubbed me wrong the whole story. There are some predictable parts but the part right before the ending of the book was the biggest shocker to me. I won't spoil it but I didn't see it happening & I hope others enjoy that part as much as I did. Paolo is such a great guy just wish we had a bit more of him in story & background. I highly recommend this book to everyone!
