????? ' I could actually feel the charm of the tea shop, if it was a real place I would want to visit it'
????? 'Once started, I could hardly put it down'
????? 'A gorgeous and vivid setting, and a really special romance'
When Lucy's childhood sweetheart leaves her at the altar, her world shatters. But instead of canceling her honeymoon, she boards the plane alone-bound for a sun-soaked island that will change everything.
In Naples, recently widowed Elena is fighting to keep her husband's family mozzarella factory and language school afloat while raising her young son. Desperate to save both businesses, she posts a job advert-and fate delivers Lucy to her doorstep.
Together, these two women-each nursing heartbreak and loss-discover that friendship, food, and a dash of courage can heal even the deepest wounds.
Filled with pasta, laughter, and second chances, this is a story of resilience, renewal, and the unexpected magic of connection.
'Real heart, sunshine and a smattering of Italian, the story is a holiday in book form' People's Friend
'Totally hooked. Loving it. Pictorial, warm and evocative. Really entrancing and beautifully written'. Rula Lenska

Person
Jane Lambert was brought up on the west coast of Scotland, studied Modern Languages at Stirling University, then taught English in Vienna. Her love affair with Italy began when she married an Italian chef from Naples and spent a lot of time out there with his family. Her debut novel, THE START OF SOMETHING WONDERFUL, was published by HarperCollins in 2018 and inspired by her rollercoaster transition from globe-trotting air hostess to aspiring actor.
