Live your dream of Italy...

Here is your chance to buy your own home in southern Italy for less than the price of a cup of coffee. The picturesque mountain town of Montenello is selling off some of its historic buildings for just ONE EURO each. The only conditions are that purchasers must renovate their new home within the next three years and that they plan to contribute in a meaningful way to this small community.

To be considered as a future resident of Montenello contact the town's mayor, Augusto Rossi. Live your dream of Italy for just one euro.

When the Mayor of a picturesque Italian town launches a new scheme to rejuvenate the community, his advertisement is read with interest and excitement by many. Zara is in her thirties and desperate to get on the property ladder. Tim and Lynda are retiring and need a project. Some are looking for a peaceful bolthole. Others hope to make a profit, start a business, escape a dull life or an unhappy relationship. And there is someone who just might be hiding their true motivation...

Their lives are about to change forever - but can they make their dream of Italy into a reality? A deliciously escapist summer read.

Perfect Cozy Story

Really enjoyed this one, wonderful characters and story. If you’re not dreaming of Italy, I’ll be shocked.

Excellent narration

Interesting way author develops each character independently . Would have preferred less elaboration on the romance of the gay couple but overall e excellent story

lo amo ♥

what a wonderful tale. makes me want to to Italy! didn't want it to end!

greatly enjoyed it.

loved the approach. Hard to find anything these days that does not contain four lettered words and violence. Enjoyed the narrative. But the thing that truly astonished me was the narrator Jane. How on earth can she do Australian, English, Italian, American accents without error. It is almost impossible to get Australian accurately without being Australian. Bravo Jane!!

Character friends

This book has well written characters that develop to be your friends. You root for these friends as they travel through self-discovery and a new town full of history and quirks. The writer creates interest as you feel invested in the success of your new friends. The friends cover many different stages in life as well as lifestyles, however you grow to love them all. I personally enjoyed these characters as well as the landscape of Italy.

Beautiful story and narration!!!

What a beautiful story! Had me thinking I may want to move to a small town in Italy!

I want more of the Montenello

such a wonderful escape

so loved this audio book. I could picture the small Italian town and felt like all the characters were believable, likeable and interesting. the narrator did such a great job, switching to charming accents so effortlessly. I really didn't want it to end and would really love sequels, there's so much potential for more storylines following these wonderful characters . great job by the author and narrator, I look forward to listening to more books from both of them.

Charming

A wonderful story. Was deeper than I expected. Plenty of imagery and complex characters.
