Reviews

"Adler is known for her skill in describing place, and she exceeds all expectations in [the] detailing of Rome and Amalfi in her newest novel. Alder captures villages, gardens, houses, and everyday life, all to the reader's vast enjoyment...her language is deft and graceful...the magic in Adler's novels resides not only in place, but also in the stories she weaves. And her romances are not just between men and women, they are between reader and landscape. Here the atmosphere is so lush gardens grow from the page, her descriptions are so beautiful and clear that one could wander her cities with only this book as the map, and so evocative that the reader feels that he or she has also eaten pizza in a tiny cafe, and watched fishermen unload their catch." --Booklist"Adler...once again brings a far-flung locale to life with escapist flair, taking the reader--along with the questing heroine--on a trip to the coast of southern Italy...the novel engages with a light story and luscious descriptions of food and scenery." --Publishers Weekly"Adler's awesome talent for descriptive prose transports the reader to the lush beauty of the Amalfi coast in this beautiful tale of secrets, heartbreak, hope, and love. Adler's eye for detail, intricate plotting, and remarkable, believable characters make her stories a true gift to the reader. Magnificent!" --Affaire de Coeur"Adler excels in this genre, which includes her previous novels The Last Time I Saw Paris and Invitation to Provence." --Tampa Tribune"Adler's descriptions are so lush, so lyrical, you can almost smell the salt of the ocean, taste the dark, acrid sweetness of a good cappuccino. Her gorgeous imagery of Rome makes you want to pack your bags and go! It gets even better when she gets to the Amalfi seaside, with the house tucked into the cliffs, the boats bobbing on a sparkling blue sea, and the scent of lemons everywhere." --Romancedivas.com
