She needed a getaway. What she found was a home. When Louise surprises her boyfriend by returning early from a work trip, safe to say she wasn't expecting to see him in flagrante with another woman. Heart-torn and vowing to stay away from men, when Louise's next project involves restoring an ageing hotel in Italy, she leaps at the chance to get away.

Managed by a crew of sextagenarians, the Grand Hotel del Monferrato needs all the love and care Louise can give it. But it's hard to stay focused on the job when her thoughts keep straying to Vito, the reclusive and mysterious neighbour. With his tragic past and her no-romance policy, Louise knows they can't have a future.

Yet something keeps pulling the two together... A beautiful romance set in the hills of Turin, perfect for readers of Lucy Coleman and Alex Brown. Praise for An Escape to Remember' The story was compelling and entertaining, I rooted for the characters and liked the storytelling.
