Publisher's summary

The Villa Girls is the story of four young women who decide that wherever they are in the world and whatever they're doing they'll meet every few years for a holiday together somewhere sunny. Despite life taking them in very different directions, their snatched days in the sun in little hidden villas are crucial to them all. Escape, celebration, recovery - over the years the holidays change their lives.Rosie was always the odd one out - initially only invited as the others felt sorry for her, but it seems that in the end, she might be the one whose life is touched the most by her villa days. For it's there that she meets Enzo. The eldest son of an olive oil dynasty in southern Italy, he is being groomed to take over one day as head of the family.

Rosie and Enzo have a holiday romance that seems set to become something more serious until she discovers he is not entirely what he seems. Years later they meet again and this time Rosie must decide how much she is prepared to compromise for the sake of love...

An easy read

I’ve read five or six books by this author because I love Italy. They are a bit formulaic, but most romances are. The descriptions of the settings in Italy really take you there. My main criticism is the amount of time used to describe food. This book I thought spent way too much time on food. I would enjoy reading less on the food and more on the characters.
I also wish Audible would give us more info on the names of the characters and the places. It’s very hard to understand those things with no written information.

Great story and narrative

I was pleasantly surprised by the story and the audio narrator. I love the detail Ms Pellegrino had in her story. I found myself laughing and crying- I was able to visualize easily. I look forward to reading her other books. Grazie
