Description
This bestselling novel from beloved author Adriana Trigiani follows Jess Capodimonte Baratta, a woman who realizes she’s nowhere close to living the life she imagined. Freshly divorced and back in her parents’ basement in blue-collar Lake Como, New Jersey, Jess is the reliable daughter—cooking Sunday dinners, caring for her parents, and putting herself last. Her one bright spot is her work as a talented draftswoman in her family’s marble business, where her uncle Louie insists she can shine if she believes in herself.
When a family tragedy exposes long-hidden secrets, Jess begins to question everything she thought she owed her loved ones. Pushed by pain and fueled by long-forgotten dreams, she takes a bold leap and travels to Carrara, Italy, her ancestral home. Surrounded by marble mountains, artistic inspiration, and unexpected romance with goldsmith Angelo Strazza, Jess starts carving out a new identity.
Heartfelt, funny, and full of Italian charm, this is a story of reinvention, creativity, and choosing a life that truly matters.
