Thank you to the publisher for a Netgalley of this one! 

Though I am not much of a romance reader, Josie Silver is an auto read author for me. Coming from an Italian family, I loved reading about Gio's family and their interactions with each other, as well as, Iris. The same could be said for her upstairs neighbors/bosses/landlords/BFFs. I enjoyed their characters and what they brought to the story as secondary characters. 

I did enjoy reading about Iris' life and how she got to this moment. The backstory of her mom's life and all the events leading to the present were also well done. My biggest qualm was Iris' ability to stick her head in the sand when it came to the lives of others. While she had been through a lot, her choices about the gelato recipe was kind of just weird. I also do not love the miscommunication trope and that was prevalent in this story.
