Book Description
When Kim Rees trained as a translator, she expected an exotic life of fashion shows, private jets and Latin popstars. Five years later, she's ended up specialising in translating computer games for the German market. Not to put too fine a point on it, she's stuck in a rut.
When the Italian grandfather she never knew dies, leaving her £5000, Kim's first thought is: liposuction! Bit her mother, determined to extricate Kim from the marshmallowy life she's wedged herself into, has different ideas.
Dragged against her will to the glamorous island of Capri, ostensibly to help her mother sell the family boutique, Kim initially refuses to wake up and smell the bougainvillaea. But as she succumbs to strolls through lemon groves and elegant cocktails on the terrace at sunset, she finds herself changing. She even finds herself - for the first time in years - falling in love. But will the sexy signor-of-her-dreams break her heart...?

Synopsis
Kim Rees became a translator for the glamorous jet-set lifestyle. So, five years later, she's not quite sure how she ended up in a basement flat in Cardiff translating German computer games in her dressing gown. Fortunately, her mother has a plan to extract her from her marshmallowy rut: a trip to the magical isle of Capri. At first Kim refuses to wake up and smell the bougainvillea, but as she starts to succumb to the irresistible delights of cocktails on the terrace and millionaire suitors, she's surprised to realise she's changing. And when she meets a man who's tiramisu personified, she finds herself falling in love. But how far is she prepared to go to win her Romeo?

This was an absolutley brilliant chick lit book that I didn't want to end!!
I loved all the characters and the descriptions of Capri and the region - Last year I did a cruise that stopped in Naples, and I'm gutted now that I didn't go on one of the trips to Capri as it sounds gorgeous!

I was a bit disappointed with the ending - not that it wasn't good, just not what I wanted it to be LOL (can't spoil it!!).
