I’m thrilled to share my debut novel, The Hotel Odyssey, London Nights Edition, now available on Kindle, KU and paperback.
Set against the electric backdrop of early-2000s London, The Hotel Odyssey takes readers deep into the glamorous yet chaotic world of five-star hospitality. Through the eyes of a young Italian who leaves home at 16 to chase success, we glimpse a city alive with ambition, temptation, love, and loss. It’s a story for anyone who’s ever worked behind the scenes, dreamed big, or found beauty in the madness of service life.
A realistic, witty, and emotional look at hotel life and nightlife culture, the mental health price and the glamour/facade that comes with luxury hospitality.
A blend of fiction and lived experiences from years in luxury hospitality (author is an hotel executive with 30 years experience in 11 countries)
Deeply human characters, filled with heart, humor, and contradictions
The first book in a 5-part series following the journey across iconic destinations, with Book Two, “London Days,” expected in Q1 2026.
If you enjoy immersive storytelling and settings that feel alive, I’d love for you to check it out, add it to your GoodReads shelf, or share your thoughts after reading.
Thank you for reading and for supporting independent writers like me! With eternal gratitude
