This book is a cute lil’ beachy/vacation read. There were two main story lines: Olive (FMC) grieving and Olive falling in love. I enjoyed how Olive and Leo’s (MMC) relationship developed. I think given the very two different story lines it’s hard for it to be a cutesy, fluffy romance set while “vacationing”/working on a cookbook in Italy. This book ties in food really well into interpersonal relationships. I was hoping for more romance, but I enjoyed the other story line as well. It would have been 4 stars, if it wasn’t labeled as a romance book.
Moderate: Grief, Death of parent, and Abandonment
