This book is fabulous. This book was decadent, indulgent, rich and textured. I could see the streets and taste the food and feel the ocean. It was 70% descriptions of Europe and food and wine and the rest was an absolutely perfect love story. This book is queer and horny and gorgeous. 

(It lost .25⭐️ because the descriptions of wine and food pairings started to lose me  towards the middle but then the story took off again at the half way mark.)
