Can one college semester abroad change the course of a personβs life? For Bella Rossini it did. Bella longs for a large family and close friendsβtwo things she has never known. She thinks she can handle anything until her mother sends her to Italy for a semester abroad and Bella finds herself living with seven strangers in a foreign country. Hope, Bellaβs likeable roommate for the summer, and the βperfectβ twins, Karen and Meghan, quickly become Bellaβs friends. The guysβStillman, Phillip, Rune, and Leeβare a mystery to Bella and come from backgrounds as different as their personalities. Stillman, haunted by a hard past, and Phillip, an athlete, are both fueled by competition. Studious Lee is a pre-med student by family mandate, and Rune, who tries to romance all the ladies, is a Hollywood-bound wild child. These eight college students come together with sizzling chemistry and rebellious humor. In one whirlwind summer, while uncovering the charms of Italy, they discover both friendship and love. After their summer together, life β and loss β happens. Thirty years later, Bella receives a mysterious invitation for a reunion of that college semester abroad. She has a score to settle and a dream to pursue. In Tuscany once again, Bella realizes that she is not the only one with secrets, unfulfilled dreams, disappointments, and anger. Bella and her classmates plunge on a startling collision course that none of them could have ever predicted. Set against the allure of Tuscany, with an irresistible fusion of heartbreak and humor, this debut novel, βTo Tuscany with Love,β explores the fear of letting the past determine the future, the promise of new beginnings, and the power of friendship.
