'Verona is the City of Love. But will Suzie find romance there or, like Romeo and Juliet, will it all end in tears?
When Suzie is hired to accompany spoiled, abrasive Lady Alexandra Tedburn on an all-expenses paid holiday to Italy, she fears the trip will be a disaster.
But she soon discovers there’s more to Alex than shopping and tantrums, and she’s determined to help her realise her potential – against Alex’s authoritarian father’s wishes.
As they settle in Verona, Suzie can’t stop thinking about local artist Michael, who is still mourning the tragic death of his wife. With Suzie’s future uncertain, and Michael’s past
holding him back, it seems there’s no hope for romance in the city of
star-crossed lovers… or is there?'
This book is very well written and the descriptions of place such as the Ritz or Verona are detailed enough for you to believe you have been there. By the time you have read a few chapters you can tell that Alexandra’s Dad is very over protective. So this factor makes things interesting and gives you background to why Susie is needed.
Let me tell you a little bit about the Author T.A.Williams. He studied languages while at University, then he lived and worked in France and Switzerland before going to Italy for seven years as an English Teacher. He and his Italian wife then moved back to the UK with their young daughter (at the time), while in the UK he ran a big English Language school for many years. They now live in a village in Devonshire, he has been writing almost all his life. However it was seven years ago that he finally found a publisher who liked his work enough to offer him a contract. He still finds it hard to explain that he now writes romantic comedy compared to his early work which were thrillers and historical novels. He thinks it because he tries to cheer his readers up when so many horrible things are happening in the world. He loves his job, his books provide escapism to some gorgeous locations and as the writer he obviously has to go there first and check them out.
Overall I enjoyed this book. However I did have trouble getting into this book. This comes at no fault of the author, just that I found it hard to get stuck in. Grab your copy of this book HERE.
Until Next Time
