Better Than Gelato


Goodbye mind-numbing business classes, hello hunky Italian men…

When Juliet Evans scores a job as a nanny in Italy, she’s ready for a year of excitement and glamour. She is not ready for a diabolical six-year-old who swears like a pirate and hurls silverware with terrifying accuracy.

Still, it’s a small price to pay to explore Milan, take a million photos, and fantasize about becoming a professional photographer. And yes, she knows she has to take over the family business when she returns home, but a little denial never hurt anyone.

And speaking of denial, she is definitely not attracted to research intern, Jake Fields. She barely even notices his adorable dimples and quiet charm. Besides, dating an American in Italy is like eating at McDonald’s in Rome—ridiculous! Yet, despite her best efforts, Juliet finds herself in the bewildering and euphoric grip of first love.

It’s exhilarating! Intoxicating! Even better than gelato! Until it’s the one thing standing in the way of her dreams.

The future she’s always wanted is so close. Now what is she willing to give up to get it?

Perfect for fans of romantic travel stories, coming-of-age romance, and contemporary love stories set in breathtaking destinations.
