The View from Lake Como
Despre această carte electronică
Set on the glittering shores of Lake Como comes the new novel of love, second chances, and making your own fate, from the Sunday Times bestselling author Adriana Trigiani
Recently divorced, Jess Capodimonte Baratta is helping her Uncle Louie with his marble business from her parents’ basement in Lake Como, New Jersey. When an unexpected loss within the family unearths long-buried secrets that make Jess question where her loyalties lie, she decides a change of scene is needed, and escapes to Carrara, Italy - her ancestral home.
From the shadows of the majestic marble-capped mountains of Tuscany to the glittering streets of Milan and the enchanting shores of Lake Como, Jess soon feels a sense of belonging in her new country. And when she meets dreamy Angelo Strazza, a passionate artist, it feels like she is finally where she is meant to be.
But as further revelations about her family history come to light, it becomes clear that Italy cannot be her hiding place forever.
Will the dark truths of her ancestral past send her back home?
Or help her finally live life on her own terms?
