A simple but poignant story about love and grief.
Millie is struggling to cope with the unexpected, sudden death of her father, Dominic. Her 2 sisters, Elyse and Leonie, and their mother are also grieving in their own ways. They make their annual journey to Rome - this year their Aunt Alice is getting married to Stefano. The scenery, food and atmosphere of Italy is perfectly described. However everything the family does just reminds them of the huge hole in their lives. Each of the 3 teenage sisters tries with the support of the others to deal with their own feelings about love and relationships and what the future holds for them without Dominic.
This is perfect holiday reading for young (and not so young!) adults but keep your tissues handy.
