It's not where you go. It's what you take back with
you...
On her thirtieth birthday, Gwendolyn Reese receives an
unexpected present from her widowed Aunt Bea: a grand tour
of Europe in the company of Bea's Sudoku and Mahjongg Club.
The prospect isn't entirely appealing. But when the gift she
is expecting -- an engagement ring from her boyfriend --
doesn't materialize, Gwen decides to go.
At first, Gwen approaches the trip as if it's the math
homework she assigns her students, diligently checking
monuments off her must-see list. But amid the bougainvillea
and stunning vistas of southern Italy, something changes.
Gwen begins to live in the moment -- skipping down stone
staircases in Capri, running her fingers over a glacier in
view of the Matterhorn, racing through the Louvre, and
taste-testing pastries at a Marseilles café. Reveling in
every new experience -- especially her attraction to a
charismatic British physics professor -- Gwen discovers that
the ancient wonders around her are nothing compared to the
renaissance unfolding within...
