A BRAND NEW Italian escapist love story for fans of Sarah Morgan, Mandy Baggot and Jill Mansell 🇮🇹💖

Every book in the Wedding Planners series can be read as a standalone.

Wedding planner Ginny Weller is an unashamed romantic, optimist and believer in happy-ever-afters.

But after a string of disastrous boyfriends, even Ginny is beginning to have doubts. She decides the only course of action is to embark on a self-imposed dating ban. After all, her friends keep telling her that love will arrive when she stops looking.

A few months into the experiment, Ginny’s not convinced. The only man who has set her heart racing is grumpy photographer Rhys, and that was in annoyance rather than passion.

With a dream wedding in Italy to attend, Ginny and Rhys have no option but to spend time together. As the idyllic landscape of the Dolomites weaves its magic, she discovers a softer side to Rhys – and the secrets he’s been keeping – and her heart begins racing for all sorts of other reasons.

Can Ginny’s dating ban survive the most romantic country of all or will the dolce vita – and the ruggedly handsome Rhys - prove impossible to resist?

Leonie Mack’s latest novel will magic you away to the sun, the beautiful countryside and romance of Italy. Not to be missed by fans of Jill Mansell, Mandy Baggot and Sarah Morgan.
