Publisher's Summary
Stella has life under control - and that's the way she likes it. For 25 years, she's been the trusted assistant to a legendary fashion designer, but after her boss dies suddenly, she's left with nothing to do apart from clear the studio.
It seems as though the life she wanted has vanished. She is lost - until one day she finds a house swap website and sees a beautiful old villa in a Southern Italian village. Could she really exchange her poky London flat for that?
But what was intended as just a break becomes much more, as Stella finds herself trying on a stranger's life. As the villa begins to get under her skin, she can't help but imagine the owner from the clues around her. She meets his friends, cooks the local food he recommends and follows suggestions to go to his favourite places. But can an idea of someone ever match up to the reality?
As Stella wonders if she can let go of the safety of her past, perhaps there's a chance for her to find a way into her future....

Such a lovely story!
I really enjoyed the characters and storyline , I didn’t want it to end. It was a wonderful
Escapist way to spend a day. The narrator was fantastic too.

This story doesn’t disappoint
Nicky has a way of immersing the reader in the Italian lifestyle and culture, all the while getting to know the characters in detail.
This book was once again an easy read which engages and involves the reader. A feel good book .
