My Review: I had a lovely time in Italy thanks to A Vintage Vacation by Maddie Please. Clover Harrington loves ‘Rouge Amazone’ lipstick, and she’s embarking on an adventure, after years in a cooperate job, and a relationship with self absorbed Jack, whose handsome and obnoxious. Her world is turned upside down and she decides to find her feet again, some time out to regain focus, this takes her to Italy to stay with Zoe and Paolo. Her son Ben from her marriage to Casper, is in Canada. Leaving London behind she finds herself collected by the handsome Gio. Such a well written and engaging story. I loved the community, the setting, local phrases that are scattered throughout the book. Definitely a lovely, easy to follow story and a recommended read.

A Vintage Vacation

Clover Harrington might be sixty-one, but she’s still bossing it in the corporate world and can still run rings around her younger colleagues. And then she is made redundant….

Devastated and now suddenly the wrong side of sixty Clover doesn’t know what to do with her life or her corporate wardrobe! What does she wear if not red lippy and a power suit?! Rather than offer her any support, her partner, Jack announces he’s off on a golfing weekend, leaving Clover completely adrift.

Desperate to get away from it all, Clover decides to visit her cousin Zoe at her small taverna in the gorgeous Italian Lakes. There she can rest and recuperate and plan the next stage of her life.

Until Clover’s eighty-year-old mother, Eleanor decides to turn up for the holiday too! Instead of gentle ambles around the lake, Eleanor seems more interested in late night poker and swigging Prosecco and Clover can’t quite believe her mum is having more fun than she is. But as the saying goes – if you can’t beat em, join em!

But is Clover brave enough to live La Dolce Vita?
