'Lyrical, heartrending and compelling' JOJO MOYES on Recipe for Life
Kat is an adventurer, a food writer who travels the world visiting far-flung places and eating unusual things. Now she is about to embark on her biggest adventure yet - a relationship.
She has fallen in love with an Italian man and is moving to live with him in Venice where she will help him run his small guesthouse, Hotel Gondola. Kat has lined up a book deal and will write about the first year of her new adventure, the food she eats, the recipes she collects, the people she meets, the man she doesn't really know all that well but is going to make a life with.

Enchanting...a delightful feel-good story
Once again Nicky Pellegrino has had me glued to my sofa, book in hand.
Nicky Pellegrino's descriptions are vivid and she makes her beautiful setting come to life really well. She describes food in such a detailed way that I could almost taste it, it was absolutely mouthwatering.

When Nicky Pellegrino's Italian father came to England he fell in love with and married a Liverpool girl. He brought to his new family his passion for food and instilled in them what all Italians know - that you live to eat instead of eating to live. This Italian mantra is the inspiration behind Nicky's delicious novels. When Nicky met and married a New Zealander she moved to Auckland where she works as a journalist and edits a woman's magazine.
