Secrets of the Italian Guesthouse by Sue Moorcroft #Review #Italian Legacy #Giveaway
Two sisters she's never met
A first love who's impossible to forget...
For Jade, life in Lake Como is la dolce vita. Until her beloved grandmother passes, leaving Jade not just the family's bustling guesthouse to run, but two life-changing secrets to confront...
The pensione hasn't just been left to Jade, it's also been inherited by her sisters - who she had no idea existed. As Erin and Rosalie arrive in Italy, Jade is forced to face the heart-wrenching prospect of sharing her last remaining tie to the woman who raised her.
Jade is desperately trying to hold on to the past, but there's one person she would prefer to leave firmly behind: her first love, Leo. He's back in the city that is filled with the memories they once made together. But as Jade fights to take control of her future and her heart, why do all cobbled roads lead back to Leo?
Lose yourself in the first, utterly romantic novel in a brand-new trilogy, filled with new beginnings and second chances. Perfect for fans of Sarah Morgan and Milly Johnson.
My Thoughts
This gorgeous romance will certainly whet your appetite for more in the Italian Legacy series. It introduces the three sisters, Jade, Erin and Rosalie as they meet following some earth shattering news which will change all their lives. Jade has run the Italian guesthouse alongside her grandmother who has brought her up and following the death of this strong woman, she finds out that her grandmother has been hiding a secret all Jade's life. Because of the Italian laws concerning inheritance, Jade has to share the guesthouse with two sisters she did not know existed. Not surprisingly, Jade struggles to come to terms with all these changes but is desperate to do what her grandmother wanted.
There are other family secrets lurking in the shadows and you sense that both Erin and Rosalie have complicated life stories to tell in future books. For the present, they have to try to get to know each other and decide what they want to do with their inheritance. Her sisters are not the only people Jade has to deal with . The return of her ex, Leo, causes her to rethink a few things where he is concerned. His close family are also fond of Jade with long connections and Leo himself has to decide whether he wants to return to the UK or stay where he was brought up. On the look out for a business to invest in, he seems to hanker after putting down roots.
With a gorgeous setting in Lake Como and an array of interesting characters, this is a series with lots of potential which makes you look forward at the end for the next instalment.
In short: family complications and romance returns
