How wonderful to be back in Tuscany, this time in December and with a festive feel to the new course that Luca and Izzie are putting on. I'll admit like Izzie I had no expectations of snow in Tuscany, but apparently there is some!
I loved all the Italian food in this story, and also all the Christmas crafts that Izzie came up with. I wish I was talented enough to try to make some myself, as they sounded fabulous.
This addition to the series didn't have a mystery as such in it, or at least nothing for Luca and Izzie to try their hands at amateur detecting again, but just from early conversations with each guest, you could see that there were a lot of secrets amongst themselves to see if they would be revealed during the book.
I did though want to bang Luca and Izzie's heads together, as one simple honest conversation at the start of the week would have really helped (but the story would have been a lot shorter and less enjoyable), but I'll admit I am incredibly satisfied with how the series has been brought to a conclusion.
It was so great to catch up with my favourite Italian residents in the local area, I do love a familiar face in a series, and this one had plenty of them.
I've loved all three books of this Villa Limoncello series, and this was no exception. Filled with all the best things Tuscany has to offer, some sexy men, delicious food, great craft ideas and plenty of secrets and intrigue - I whizzed through the pages in a state of pure bliss.
