Lost for Love in Italy: An Uplifting Summer Escape
From USA Today bestselling author Olivia Miles comes a sweeping summer novel set in Italy, where love, friendship, and long-buried truths collide.
They came to Italy for a wedding. What they found was a second chance.
Best friends since college reunite in Sorrento for a sun-soaked celebration of love—but behind the breathtaking views and carefully planned festivities, nothing is quite as perfect as it seems.
Kendall has made a life out of staying one step ahead of her feelings—but nothing prepares her for standing beside the bride while trying not to look at the groom, the man she secretly loved first. Now, with the wedding days away, she must decide whether staying silent protects her friendship…or tears her apart.
Lauren, steady and self-assured, believes a week in Italy might help her reset. But each day reveals just how far she and her husband have drifted—and forces her to face the possibility that the life she built may no longer be the one she wants to return to.
Serena has planned every detail of her dream wedding, convinced that perfection will quiet her doubts. But as her closest friends gather and the pressure mounts, she begins to wonder if she’s walking toward a future she truly wants—or one she’s simply afraid to turn away from.
Over one unforgettable week on the Amalfi Coast, three women will face the truths that could change everything. Will they follow the futures they once imagined—or take a leap of faith toward the lives their hearts are finally brave enough to claim?
