Publisher's Summary

A burned-out pop star stranded in small-town Kentucky can't help falling for her unlikely knight in shining armour—the notoriously grumpy owner of the local pie shop—in this charming slice of romance from the author of the TikTok sensation The Cheat Sheet.

Rome is where the heart is.

Amelia Rose is burned-out from years of maintaining her public image as pop princess Rae Rose. Inspired by her favourite Audrey Hepburn film, Roman Holiday, she drives off in the middle of the night for a break in Rome...Rome, Kentucky, that is.

Running the pie shop his grandmother left him, Noah Walker is busy enough as it is. But after finding Amelia on his front lawn in her broken-down car, he decides to let her stay in his guest room—on a very temporary basis, of course.

As the two of them grow closer, Noah starts to see a new side to Amelia—kind-hearted and goofy, yet lonely from years in the public eye. Amelia may have to go back to her other life someday, but for now she's perfectly happy falling in love with the cozy small town she's found herself in...and her grumpy tour guide isn't half-bad either.

Critic Reviews

"This modern take on the Hepburn classic Roman Holiday is a quick, fun, slow-burn rom-com." (Abby Jimenez)

"My Audrey Hepburn loving heart is so happy! When in Rome is a delectable romance, sweet and satisfying as a slice of warm apple pie." (Chloe Liese)

"Sarah Adams' books are woven with pure sunshine and rainbows.... It's everything you could want in a small-town romance, along with a heaping dollop of her signature wit and sparkling charm." (Amy Lea)

So cute!

I loved this story. It was so cute. And the narrators were brilliant. I started listening to this at work and couldn’t stop myself from grinning like an idiot
