Showing results for "Rome" in Friendship

April Appleby only wants two things in life: to move on from her ex-fiancé, and, as a foodie living on the north side of Chicago, to figure out the secret ingredient of her late mother’s pasta sauce. Easier said than done considering her ex has just popped back into the picture, and she inherited zero cooking genes from her mom.

Seventy-five-year-old Ronnie has made it her mission to help women of a certain age rediscover themselves. The owner of a palazzo in Rome, she has left her troubled past behind and reinvented herself in the most beautiful city in the world. And now she helps other women to do the same. Renting out her spare apartment for three months at a time, Ronnie invites her guests to take on a series of challenges that will help them to embrace beauty and joy, to rediscover themselves and to live their lives to the fullest. But Ronnie’s confident exterior hides heartbreak and closely held secrets.
