"'You know, people come to Italy for all sorts of reasons, but when they stay, it's for the same two things.'

'What?'

'Love and gelato'" (pg 322).

A sweet story! The parts about family, grief, and Lina's father are the absolute best. I wasn't really feeling the romance. It felt like too much emotional cheating happened in a week.

The Italian setting is beautiful, and I like Lina for the most part. She had a wicked-awesome best friend too!

I recommend for anyone that wants a simple, light-hearted read.

Why did Thomas have to be a fake all along? Why couldn't he have been just British?

2 stars for my enjoyment; 3 stars for story
