One Summer In Tuscany
By Domenica De Rosa
- Contemporary Fiction
Books (Paperback)
£2.50 GBP
Perfect holiday reading from Domenica de Rosa, author of the bestselling Dr Ruth Galloway Mysteries under the pen name Elly Griffiths. A group of would-be authors retreats to Tuscany where they learn more than how to write better. Patricia O’ Hara’s carefully composed ads for the writers’ retreat she runs promise so much. The splendour of the thirteenth century Italian castle & chef Aldo’s melanzane never fail to wow the guests, but huge maintenance bills & bad news from the bank mean it’s make or break time for the Castello.

But this August something is different, & soon lifelong spinster Mary is riding on the back of Aldo’s vespa, & smouldering odd-job man Fabio has set more than one heart racing. As temperatures rise, the writers gossip, flirt & gently polish their prose by the pool. But with ghosts, scorpions, & some unexpected visitors to contend with, one... ...

When thirty-four-year-old ex-war veteran Jack Armstrong is told he has only weeks to live, his first concern is for his beloved wife Lizzie, and their children: baby Jackie, twelve-year-old would-be actor Cory and rebellious teenage daughter Mikki. It seems so cruel that an apparently fatal illness should claim him, a survivor of Afghanistan and Iraq, when he still has so much left to live for. On Christmas Eve, as Jack prepares to say goodbye to his family, unthinkable tragedy strikes again and Lizzie is killed in a car accident. Just when Jack thought living was far harder than dying, and the childrens future looked so bleak, something remarkable happens which gives Jack the valuable second chance he?d only dreamed of. Unexpectedly, the family inherits Lizzies
beautiful childhood home on the oceanfront in South Carolina. During one unforgettable summer Jack and the children struggle to rebuild their lives. They learn to live again ? and to love again. And they learn the biggest lesson of all ? the importance of family.
