Gently, Jolene

Summary

Have you ever dreamed of starting over in a new place? Jolene acted on that dream, and now she's traveling to Italy on a one-way ticket.

Eager to leave her past disappointments behind, Jolene takes a leap of faith and accepts Filippo's unexpected proposal to travel back to Italy's fabled Cinque Terre with him.

Thrilled at the prospect of a new life with her new love in one of the world's most enchanting travel destinations, Jolene can't wait to begin the adventure of working alongside Filippo at Locanda Luisa, his family's hotel in the village of Manarola.

But as she explores the Cinque Terre's cliffside vineyards, Jolene also stumbles upon bits and pieces of disconcerting information. As her misgivings multiply, she grows more and more determined to discover the truth, and her quest ultimately lands her at the center of a family drama for which she is utterly unprepared.

Gently, Jolene is the inspiring story of every woman's need to hope, of learning how to let go of the past, take a second chance, and find the courage to follow her heart's path. If you love Italy and have enjoyed stories such as the classic A Room With a View or Eat, Pray, Love, Gently, Jolene is a must-listen.
