Lauren Henderson

Travel, romance, intrigue, and fun, set against the backdrop of the glorious Italian countryside are what you’ll find in this companion to Flirting in Italian by Lauren Henderson, author of Kiss Me Kill Me. It’s been a terrific summer in Italy so far. Violet’s summer studies program is interesting, she’s made new friends, and the shopping is amazing. And now her lighthearted romance with handsome aristocrat Luca di Vesperi has developed into something deeper. For the first time in her life, she understands the true meaning of the word amore. Luca feels the same about her. But there are certain rumors circulating that, if proven to be true, will mean they can never be together. What they need are answers—but are they prepared for the truth?

           The ending was incredibly cliche and took way too long to get there. It was almost Princess Diaries in a way (as I assume it's supposed to be) where the girl gets whisked off to be a princess. And it's very clear to me that Luca and Violet shouldn't be together, and I think the liberties the author took to make sure they did end up together ruined it a little bit. I did enjoy the girls' character development better (although Violet was a little too cold to Kelly IMO, give the poor girl a break!) and I really enjoyed the addition of Evan. I think the dynamic between him and Violet would have worked out much better than Luca. But alas, why deny the readers their forbidden romance?
