This third instalment to the four part story is an absolutely delightful read, have loved every page of it.

I've enjoyed seeing how the story is progressing, and thoroughly enjoyed the trip to Italy which was described in such lovely detail that it's made me want to visit.

There was a lot of heartfelt and emotional moments throughout. I can't wait to read the final instalment to this fabulous story.

This is the third installment of events at The Lemon Tree Cafe.

Rosie and her family are still reeling from hearing that Nonna had a secret past. Rosie decides to travel to Sorrento with Nonna to get to the bottom of the secret by visiting the local graveyard. They also visit the old family cafe/bar and find that it is now run by a relative called Paulo.

While in Italy, Rosie realises that she needs a unique selling point for The Lemon Tree Cafe, if she is to fight off the competition of the cafe at the local garden centre. Rosie also realises that she has feelings for Gabe and intends to let him know.

I love the Lemon Tree Cafe series of books and can't wait for the end of June when the next installment is available.

Great

Part 3 is just as good as the first 2. Rosie goes to Italy with Maria to find out the truth of her past. On return, things are looking good between Rosie and Gabe until he tells her who his new boss is. Will they be able to working out and get the HEA that they both deserve? Can't wait for part 4 to find out.
