Anabel Newsome’s life is falling apart. A single rogue email might have ruined the career that she spent ten years building, and now she is willing to do anything to get it back.Anything… even working with Luca, the Italian painter who broke her heart ten years ago in the beach town of Traele, Italy.When she returns to the sunshine-soaked coast to ‘find her bliss’ and convince her boss she’s recovered from burnout (that she swears she doesn’t have in the first place), she learns that the hostel she loves is on the brink of ruin. Maybe it’s because that’s something she and the building have in common, or maybe it’s just because she’s really, really bad at taking a break, but Ana is determined to save it. And Luca, as the hostel handyman, is going to help.Two Italian summers, ten years apart, and between renovations going wrong, a new summer fling, and an old heartbreak, Ana isn’t exactly having the relaxing summer that she planned - but the beach vacation she never wanted might just be her second chance to make the right choice.

Daniel was born and raised in Marshmallow Springs, where he runs the Pie Shop - a tribute to his late grandmother. She didn’t just pass on her pastry recipe, but her food-based magic; a gift that he now uses to help the people of the town… until Lores and her boss started trying to turn a beloved historic home into soulless apartments. Now, he’s determined to use everything he can - even his grandmother’s secrets - to stop them.Both Lores and Daniel have learned the hard way that nothing ever goes to plan, but when these two opposites quite literally crash into each other, neither is prepared for just how much is going to change. Will magic be enough to save both the Roberts House and their blossoming romance, especially when their secrets start to come out?
