*A story of independence, family, lust, and love that will have you falling head over heels with stunning scenery and wholesome characters. This is the first audiobook in the Where the Heart Lies series.*

A young woman estranged from her father finds herself fighting to focus on her chosen career path after a summer romance turns her life upside down. This debut novel puts a fresh spin on the classic holiday romance with a heroine fighting for her independence, and an illicit romance that threatens to end her art career before it has even begun.

Anabella’s father has been raising her to be a doctor ever since she was 10 years old, even though her real passion lies in the world of art. Defying her father’s plans for her future, Ana applies for a degree in fine art as well as medical school. The trouble begins when her acceptance letter to York St John University arrives. Yearning to find her own way in life, she rejects her place at medical school and pursues her own dreams of becoming an artist instead.

Needing time to reflect on her chosen path, she travels to Italy to stay with her Nonna: the eccentric, but ever supportive grandmother that introduced her to art years before. Join Ana as she takes time to explore the beautiful seaside town of Pisciotta and encounters handsome painter Sam, who teaches her as much about romance as he does about painting.

After a heated summer, Ana returns to England to start her life as a student in York. But a shocking reunion between her and Sam, and the complications that arise from it, threaten to derail her focus on her future. The summer of a lifetime could never have prepared her for the perils of adult life and its complicated relationships.

How can she focus on her career when her heart lies in Pisciotta?
