About this ebook
A mother and daughter travel to Italy together—and discover a world of new possibilities and second chances . . .
Marina Caldwell is thrilled to receive a two-week trip to Tuscany as a college graduation gift. That is, until she realizes her mother wants to go with her. The gulf between idealistic single parent Elizabeth and cautious, controlled Marina seems too wide to bridge, even with the aid of chilled Prosecco and mouthwatering panforte.
But amid the magical sights and scents of Florence, Marina’s careful plans for her vacation—and her future—are thrown into chaos, and Elizabeth’s long-held assumptions crumble. Soon a world of unexpected possibilities unfolds for both—buoyed by newfound courage, unshakeable love, and the stirring beauty of a Tuscan sky . . .
Praise for the writing of Holly Chamberlin
“Nostalgia over real-life friendships lost and regained pulls readers into the story.” —USA Today on Summer Friends
“It does the trick as a beach book and provides a touristy taste of Maine's seasonal attractions.” —Publishers Weekly on The Family Beach House

Mother-daughter relationships. I found the story to be very realistic and even heartwarming. Lots of soul-searching. In the end, it made sense, leaving me wanting more.
