Escape ... with four gorgeously romantic and evocative tales from the Escape to Italy series in one heartwarming collection. SUMMER IN SORRENTO Maia Connolly never expected to find herself widowed at forty-five. Her beloved husband died unexpectedly while restoring their nineteenth century Italian farmhouse on a secluded hillside in Sorrento. Since his death, money is tight which is why Maia decides to open the farmhouse to tourists as summer accommodation. Uncertain of her business capabilities and even more of her hospitality skills, she is thrown in at the deep end when her first bookings appear and her new guests all arrive over the same week. AUTUMN IN VERONA The Italian city of Verona has always been a draw for lovers. The setting of the famous Romeo and Juliet love story, tourists flock not only to the city's picturequese Italian beauty, but to try to capture some of the story's romantic essence. Over one glorious Autumn weekend, four visitors converge at a charming trattoria run by an elderly Italian couple, who have seen people from all walks of life pass through their doors, each with different expectations of Verona. Can the city work some of its magic on their latest customers?

It is hosted every year in the spring by Chef Isabella, in her little stone villa in the old town of Taormina. Olivia is a travel writer in Sicily to write a feature on the growing popularity of Isabella’s famed cookery class. She is intrigued to find out what makes previous guests rave about the short break. Is it the food, the location and the incredible scenery? Or is there an alchemy about Chef Isabella, and her instinctive way of knowing her students require more than cultural or food knowledge, but a means to balm their souls...
