Home for the Summer
Chapter 1
The breeze has been
competing with the humidity all morning and is finally winning. Standing on the
balcony, my hips pressed against the black iron railing, I let the cool air tip
my head back. With my dress swirling around my ankles, tickling my skin, I breathe
in the sweet air, smiling into the breeze. We’re finally here, on Italy’s sunny
coast, for the next three months.
