This is the first book in the Billionaires Abroad Series. Is Ava and Daniel's story. A sweet love story about two colleagues that are in love secretly. None of them could see the little signs to notice that. What makes difficult to Ava work side by side and take a decision to end with her torture of see every day the person who she felt in love, her boss. But unexpectedly, a business trip put in hold her next step.
Daniel is the perfect gentleman. Polite, courteous, gallant. Over the years he learned everything he could about Ava. How sweet is that! In some way or another, he took care of her. Not only as her boss, but as a friend. He is a prince charming.
Both characters are likable. The descriptions of the places where the story developed is great and makes you wants to visit Rome.
I was so happy when I knew that Zoe was writing a romance novella. I love her writing, which I enjoyed in her debut paranormal romance series as Zoe Ash Wood. She did great. And you can have a shot in this short and adorable story.

There's nothing more delicious than a romance where both characters are in love with each other, but they have no idea what the other one is feeling. Ava has a fantastic job, but feels she has to quit after this one last business trip to Italy...because she's desperately in love with her boss. Meanwhile, Daniel just can't stop thinking about his vivacious, gorgeous, and efficient employee.
I loved exploring Rome, Italy along with Ava and Daniel and the romance was as exciting as the setting and history of this beautiful, ancient place. While short and sweet, this novella gives the reader a delightful taste of culture and love that can be enjoyed in the amount of time one savors a decadent dessert.
Content: mild+ romance (a little steamy clean kissing, some innuendo)

This story is just so adorable! We start with the two colleagues taking a work trip to Rome. They both have feelings for the other and Ava's are so strong, she thinks she's going to need to quit.
This is a travesty as they are SO right for the other. The draw and the connections between them make them the perfect match and I can't recommend this well-written and lightly-humorous story more.
Five stars - Ava and Daniel gave me all the feels.

SOOOoo SWEET! I L-O-V-E-D it! Ava ❤ Daniel!! It was a very romantic story and I enjoyed it from stat to finish! I can't wait to read the next book!

This was a cute novella. I read it all in one sitting. It was short and sweet—mostly. On the scale of “clean” romances, I would consider this one a little on the steamier side, with the hero fantasizing about the heroine with thoughts I would consider sexual, and a kissing scene that left me the reader almost as breathless as the heroine. ;) (Okay, maybe that was a bit of an exaggeration, but it was intense.)
This was well-written with just a few typos. The author did a great job of incorporating the setting into the story without dragging out the pacing with long, poetic descriptions. It was just enough to make me want to visit Rome even more.
I thought the characters of the hero and heroine were both well-done, unique voices and slightly flawed.
But there were several things that either made me roll my eyes or pulled me out of the story:
1- how gorgeous this redheaded heroine was supposed to be – most of us redheads are freckled things that were teased mercilessly for being a “Copper top.”
2- how the romantic relationship was propelled forward merely by physical attraction.
3- the Italian businessmen were stereotypical of misogynistic males, and I wasn't happy to be forced to read their vulgar remarks. I think we could have skipped Daniel's conversation with them altogether and went straight to when Ava asked him what happened, getting a summarized, sanitized version.
4- I must admit that I did not relate to all the environmentalist talk. It was obviously very important to Daniel as the head of his company, but it almost felt a bit heavy-handed, like the author tried to force these ideals onto us at every place possible.
Overall, I liked it and probably will read it again.
Favorite quotes:
“She couldn't do it, couldn't stand two hours of exchanging glances with him at particularly exciting moments, or worse, hiding her blush at romantic scenes. Even watching action movies wasn't safe those days—characters kissed left, right, and center, and she'd had to keep her gaze pinned to the screen, nearly perishing from the knowledge that Daniel was sitting right there.” I laughed out loud & had to explain this to my husband. ;)
“When in Rome, huh?” lol! They are.
“Ava laughed, glancing down the aisle. A glamorous lady gave her a thumbs-up, and an elderly couple clapped quietly, smiling at them. Their private moment wasn't as private as they'd thought, but it was still perfect.” <3 Awww!

One of the sweetest books I've ever read! This new to me author nailed every aspect of this book from characters to plot to the HEA ending.
Ava Burke has a job she absolutely loves, which would be great, if she wasn't madly in love with her boss. But he has never given her any reason to believe he was interested. She knows cutting all ties is the only chance she has of moving on. But she doesn't expect a sudden business trip to Rome. Now she just has to get through this trip without letting on how she feels.
Daniel Howe has built his father's company into a thriving billion dollar industry and he couldn't have done it without Ava Burke. She has helped to make it the success it is. He just wishes he could tell her how he feels about her without risking losing her altogether.
Now in Rome together both will struggle with their feelings for the other. Will Ava and Daniel be able to put their hearts on the line for love?
This sweet and clean novella is worth the read. I highly recommend it and look forward to more books by Zoe Ann Wood.
I received an ARC and voluntarily offer this review.

When in Rome!
Ava Burke has been in love with her boss Daniel for years but doesn’t think he notices. She has decided to quit her job instead of having to work side by side with someone she doesn’t think she’ll get.
Daniel has been in love with Ava since she stepped into his office but doesn’t want to ruin their working relationship and doesn’t know if Ava feels the same way. So when Ava goes to give her resignation, he tells her that they have a last minute business trip to Rome so she decides to wait until the end of the trip.
Needless to say she doesn’t quit and they both confess their feelings for each other.
I loved this book. Ava is awesome and her love of cheese is a girl after my own heart. Daniel is clueless but lovable. They are perfect for each other. I love how they act more like friends then boss and employee. I also loved all the information thrown in about Rome. Italy is one of my favorite places ever.
Can’t wait to read more from this author.

Really enjoyed this! It was soft and sweet!
June 21, 2020
For very smart people Ava and Daniel have no clue about how the other feels and it has now reached tipping point for Ava, but before she can act they have a business trip to Rome to deal with. You start to see the cracks in their business facades and the real them shine through, however nothing is straight forward and as they are new to showing how they feel they don't always deal with it the right way and in some instances epicly fail at communicating lol. but you can see they lurve each other, so much that you know they will make it right and be together. 💘

I’m not too sure if I’ve read a true sweet romance before, so I’m not sure I have anything to judge this book by in its respective genre. However, I did have many aspects that I liked, and a few I didn’t quite like so much.
What I did like was the strong theme of equality and the need to be environmentally conscious. One of my main issues with equality (well one of a few…) is that women are often given equal opportunity for jobs (in developed countries) but we’re expected to behave a certain way.
Zoe addressed this astutely by having a really strong female lead who’s respected and loved for who she is. Ballsy behaviour and all. When many women in real life probably find this wouldn’t happen. I wish we didn’t live in a world where people were judged because of their sex, race, religion or any other difference you can think of. We’re all people wanting to same things (general themes) from life so why can’t we just move on and let it happen?
What I didn’t like so much was how little story there was outside of the romance. It’s a little bit like those cheesy porn movies where the “plumber” or whatever comes over to fix something and the housewife inevitably has sex with him and there’s not much else to the story. This had a great telling and development of the romance building between Ava and Daniel. But outside of their romance there really wasn’t anything to the story.

Overall, I think that this book is well worth reading. This was a light romance set in Rome. I enjoyed the list-like description of the places with-in the city and the jaunts that they took, both together and separately. I thought the author did a great job describing the Colosseum. This and the plot were the strong points for me.
But, when I finished the book I didn’t even have a picture in my head of what the male lead looks like. I feel like I should know what he looks like and feel a tingle when I think about him, if I’m reading a romantic novel… He seemed nice, but for some reason details about him weren’t strong enough to make an impression.
The setting was more events driven, and less visually and tactually driven. I wanted to smell and taste the Italian food, feel the spray off of the textured fountain, marvel at the rounded feel of bricks under my feet that bear the impressions of thousands of tourists before me(Think Sariah Wilson, an author who quickly immerses you in the people and places without bogging down the flow of the story). The characters were supposedly in Rome, but I didn’t get to be there with them.

(4.5 stars) - a near perfect beach read
This isn't an original premise - in fact, I was fairly sure I had already read it, but hit a point about a quarter of the way in where I finally knew with certainty that I had not.
But there are only so many tropes, and so one can hardly consider that in itself a fault - in fact, I had liked the other so much that it attracted me more to this one. So the real issue is how well the author handles it. And in this case, she does a great job.
There is the usual longing & 'if only' angst, but it never strays past credible or into annoying. The setting in Rome seriously enhances the romance.
I didn't really appreciate the conflict initially, until the two finally spelled out their concerns to one another. The resolution seemed a little too hasty or overdone, but it still doesn't qualify as an insta-love so I was more on board with it than not.
It's a fairly quick read, but it takes the time needed to tell a full, satisfying story. I'll definitely be looking for more by this author.

This was a cute, clean, short romance about two people who take almost four years to admit their feelings for each other. Ava has worked for Daniel for four years and has loved him for at least 3 1/2 of those and has now decided that she can't deny her feelings any longer and so she decides to resign. As she is trying to decide when would be best to give her resignation letter to Daniel, he pops into her office and informs her that they have to go to Rome to finalize a contract. During the plane ride over, Daniel begins to realize that he is starting to feel more than he probably should for his right hand person and tries to keep denying those feelings. Eventually, things come to ahead and now they must face the reality of dealing with both their feelings and the company where they work.

A big Thank-You, Zoe Ann Wood, for allowing me to read Give Me a Dream in exchange for an honest review.
Well, what can I really say about Give Me a Dream? This story was truly what I was hoping for.
Ava and Daniel’s story is what I like to read in a romance story. Their story is like, peak romance for me. PEAK. ROMANCE.
I adored that this story was straight to the point. There was no dilly-dallying, no messing around. In fact, Give Me a Dream was an incredibly fast read–I read Give Me a Dream in under an hour!
And for a romance story that doesn’t contain sex, I appreciate Ava and Daniel’s story even more.
When I started reading Give Me a Dream I didn’t know what to expect–I knew what I was hoping for but that was it. With what I read though, I liked what I read.
I give Give Me a Dream, 3.5 stars.

Billionaires Abroad
Can you imagine being in love with your boss and he’s completely oblivious then getting told you have a work trip to Rome, damn! This book is super sweet, whilst also having it’s challenging that the main characters have to go through.
It’s a short Novella that I was able to get through in one go. Ava has been in love with her boss for year and has done amazingly well to hide it, but for her it’s come at a cost and she finally feels she can’t do it and decides it’s time to leave.
Daniel is living his best life, running the business his father gave him and making its extremely successful, but he feels likes something is missing and he just can’t put his finger on it.
I absolutely loved this book, and I can’t wait for book 2!

I just love an office romance story and what made this even better was that it was a clean read.
But seriously how these 2 managed to work together for 3 years without saying anything to each other about how they felt. Just Wow, talk about restraint. Also how close they came to loosing it all just because they never discussed it. Thank fully it all worked out in the end. They had some moments and the descriptions of the places they visited was written in such a way that I felt I was right there too.
Very enjoyable
I received this as an arc and I am giving my honest review voluntarily

This was a sweet romance about a boss and his executive with the majority of the story taking place in Rome during a business trip. Ava is ready to quit a job she loves because she has unrequited feelings for her boss Daniel. Meanwhile, Daniel has had feelings for her for years, but is afraid to act on it and lose his employee. Plus, there are legal issues with dating an employee. There were misunderstandings, fear of rejection, and hot and cold moments. I loved reading about Rome and all the interesting places to visit and food to eat.

Ava and Daniel have worked together for almost four years. But for three years and eleven months Ava’s feelings about him have been anything but platonic. When she finally decides to resign and “get a life” outside of work, things get interesting.
A quick trip to Rome sets the stage for more than Daniel had hoped for. But can they work out the problems of mixing work and a romantic relationship?
This is a great short read for a pleasant evening.

I'm not usually a romance reader, but this novella is so sweet that it immediately won me over. I loved both the characters and the lack of alpha male vibes. The setting in Rome is also fantastic. One of my favorite aspects is that Ava has asthma, and it's an actual part of the story/her life. If you're looking for a short, fun summer read, Give Me a Dream is the perfect choice. I'm looking forward to more stories from Zoe Ann Wood!

The writing draws you in and keeps you involved throughout the whole story, I found myself in love with not only the characters but also the world that was created.
The descriptions of the characters and their feelings are so involved, you can truly picture it in your mind. Their attitudes toward the events that are happening makes the story even richer.
