Anna is determined to uncover her Italian heritage after learning about her estranged father. As she immerses herself in the culture—baking traditional dishes and studying the language—she sets her sights on Italy, hoping to find him and understand her roots. Meanwhile, Catherine is grappling with the fallout from her husband’s departure. As she navigates the emotional turmoil of betrayal, she leans on her newfound friends for support, discovering strength she didn’t know she possessed.

With humor and heart, One Night in Italy captures the essence of friendship and the surprises that life can bring, making it a memorable read for anyone seeking a story that resonates with warmth and charm.
