Bellini's Mimosa (Colors of Happiness #1)

Sometimes leaving is the only road home.

Mimi Albizia, thirty and recovering from an upsetting and disheartening incident, is at the end of a six-month sabbatical in Verona, Italy. Before resuming her old life in Boston—where she has to face the cause of her upset again—she spends a final weekend in Venice to soak up the atmosphere of mystery and romance in its labyrinth of narrow streets and canals. But after a fleeting encounter with Jake, she takes home something more than a lovely memory—namely, a yearning she can’t quench.

Jake Bellini is in no rush to take over the responsibility of helming his family’s resort hotel on Martha’s Vineyard. At thirty-three, he prefers life at his uncle’s Tuscan vineyard, where he pursues his love for winemaking and keeps his relationships casual. Until Mimi stirs up new longings—and he realizes life is about much more than grapes and sunsets.

With the centers of their lives thousands of miles apart, how can they overcome the gap between the weathered coast of New England and the rolling hills of Tuscany?

BELLINI’S MIMOSA is a story about families, taking risks and following your heart.
