About this listen

Will she be swept away in her next chapter?

Beth loves everything about living in Venice. The meandering canals and the cobbled streets have captured her heart, so when she loses her job and fears she'll have to return to England, she's devastated. Until she stumbles upon a book barge for sale, it seems like fate.

Beth has always been a bookworm and long harbored a dream of opening a specialized bookshop that combines her two passions, art and books. She just needs to be brave enough to take a chance, and maybe a little help from a local.

Enter Marco, a gorgeous, passionate local art promoter, and their chemistry is instant and electric. Beth needs Marco's local knowledge to launch her business, but as they work together, both seem determined to ignore the sparks flying between them.

The more closely they become, the more their attraction grows. Soon, they will have to choose—face their fears and give love a chance – or walk away forever.

A gorgeous escapist romance, perfect for fans of Rebecca Raisin and Cressida McLaughlin.
