Synopsis

Marina Taylor is a bold, adventure-seeking writer with a one-way ticket to Rome and big dreams to write her book, Italian Women of Influence . . . but an undeniable connection with an irresistible stranger—and her penchant for disaster—just may derail her plans.

Inspired by actress and sex icon Regina Lombardi, Marina tries to master the sexual gaze as she researches her book and stumbles her way through Italian scholars, Turkish footballers, and Sicilian twins. From the nightclubs of Rome to a Venetian masquerade ball, Marina's escapades leave her yearning for a particular French-Italian photographer. Will she catch her illusive stranger, or prove more calamity than coquette? And what about the ruggedly down-to-earth ex who's waiting for her back home?

Equal parts laugh-out-loud travel comedy and sexy adventure, Marina's first trip abroad will inspire you to throw your own itinerary out the window and throw caution to the wind. Art, love, sex, wine—the Italian playboy and the boy next door—who says you can't have it all?

Contains mature themes.

As an intrepid explorer she is unwilling to miss out on a memory, willing to bend the rules, unafraid of her own beauty, and ready to share it with those who deserve it.

This book was funny and WEIRD, which I loved. It’s one of those books where the main characters gets into a million different awkward situations, and sometimes they were eye roll inducing (like she went to release a squid from a trap and didn’t think about the consequences?!) but it was so entertain......more

Murphy’s Law is in full swing in this delightful rom-com. I completely identify with Marina because if I went on a solo trip on Europe what she experience would be what I would. And believe me the disasters and mishaps she experiences is hilarious. I needed a good book that made me laugh after readi......more
