When Amelia Tate is cast to play the Audrey Hepburn role in a remake of Roman
Holiday, she feels as if all her dreams have come true. She has a handsome
boyfriend, is portraying her idol in a major motion picture, and gets to live in
beautiful, Italian city of Rome for the next two months.
Once there, she befriends a young woman named Sophie with whom she begins
to explore the city. Together, they discover all the amazing riches that Rome has
to offer. But when Amelia's boyfriend breaks up with her over her acting career,
her perfect world begins to crumble.
While moping in her hotel suite, Amelia discovers a stack of letters written by
Audrey Hepburn that start to put her own life into perspective. Then, she meets
Philip, a handsome journalist who is under the impression that she is a hotel
maid, and it appears as if things are finally looking up. The problem is she can
never find the right time to tell Philip her true identity. Not to mention that Philip
has a few secrets of his own. Can Amelia finally have both the career and love
that she's always wanted, or will she be forced to choose again?
With her sensory descriptions of the beautiful sites, decadent food, and high
fashion of Rome, Hughes draws readers into this fast-paced and superbly written
novel. Rome in Love will capture the hearts of readers everywhere.
