by Bruna de Luca (Author)
For fans of Love and Gelato and Anna and the French Kiss, My Roman Summer is the next summer, sun-drenched romance set in the city of love.
This edition includes a special scratch and sniff cover and stained edges that will transport you into summer!
Sixteen-year-old Scottish-Italian Livia feels like an outsider, working in her ailing grandmother's bar in Rome. Smug local boy, Guilio, works there too, and quickly becomes Livia's nemesis. She is not going to be the cliché foreign girl who has a summer romance. But as Livia navigates family drama, newfound friendships and... Giulio, she starts to see the city (and herself) in a new light.
Author Biography
Bruna De Luca grew up in a very Italian household in the Scottish Borders and reluctantly describes herself as a deep-fried pizza. This dual heritage is woven into every aspect of her life - from her studies at the University of Edinburgh, where she completed a dissertation on Italian fairy tales, to the years she spent in Italy teaching students to speak English with a Scottish twang. Bruna's experiences as the child of immigrants deeply shape her writing.
