Publisher's summary

A vintage necklace. A long-hidden secret. A second chance for love.

From a USA Today best-selling author.

When costume designer Ariana Ricci leaves her groom at the altar, she seeks solace at the Palm Springs home of her great-aunt, a Texas-born Hollywood legend who began her career as an extra on the film Roman Holiday. While opening yellowed, 1950s letters postmarked Italy, Ariana discovers relics from her great-aunt’s hidden past, including an intriguing necklace that Audrey Hepburn gave her during the filming of the movie.

Aching for a fresh start and the chance to resolve an unfinished story, the two embark on a trip to the sun-dappled shores of Lake Como, Italy. The journey will illuminate secrets of a bygone era and offer second chances to each of them — if they are bold enough to seize them.

From Jan Moran, a USA Today best-selling author of romantic women's fiction, including The Chocolatier, comes a saga of love and second chances at any age. Also enjoy her contemporary Summer Beach series and the historical novels, The Winemakers and The Perfumer: Scent of Triumph.

The magic of fiction enhanced with real events.

The flow of the story, enhanced by real life experiences is woven together in a seamless way. The characters created around these real life people came to life as if they’d been there. The film, Roman Holiday, has always been a favorite and this story brings the 1952 film back to life. Read, listen and enjoy.

Hepburn’s Necklace

Perfect for this classic film buff. Story built around one of my favorites, Toman Holiday.

What a beautiful summer read!

I loved being in Lago de Como with these characters. Audrey Hepburn’s cameo is a sweet bonus to this tale from La Dolce Vita!

The never ending love between two young people.

A lifetime of Love between two people. So glad they were able to come full circle and bring their entire families together. The romanticism of Italy painted quite a beautiful picture.
