What you need to know before your trail

Iris arrives in the city of dreams, intent on restarting her culinary career, and leaving her recent heartache behind.

Wandering the streets at a famous food festival, Iris feels like she’s living in a movie. Then she stumbles upon a gelateria that looks strangely familiar. Inside, she meets Gio: a perfect leading man with an irresistible smile – and a crisis of his own.

As fate would have it, Iris is the one person with the answer to his problem. She just can’t tell him that . . .

So, can Iris finally let go of the past – and let herself fall in love?

Travel Guide

New York City

There’s plenty of New York in this fun read! If you leave someone and start again in a new city like New York, where do you go and what do you see?

Much of the novel is set in and around the Lower East Side so we get to see the iconic streets of that downtown area AND Katz’s deli where that famous Meg Ryan scene was filmed in When Harry Met Sally. Even in a book, the ‘queues are crazy busy’.

Mulberry Street and Chrystie Street are interesting to visit. You could use this book as a unique guide to the city.

Booktrailer Review

A really heart-warming and poignant story set in the most perfect place to have a winter adventure!

There’s loss, cancer and abusive relationships in this novel but also lots of hope and that’s what I got most from the novel. It might read like a holiday movie but it has real depth and feeling to it and I had the best time reading this book. It lingered with me, as did the city of New York, so that tells you that it has touched you in ways you least expected it.
