Gigi M: I enjoyed the idea of the three ladies traveling together. But, I must admit Gil was a pain in the ass. I'm glad she found love, but her selfishness was hard to bear.
I'm glad Connie accomplished her drive.
I wanted more for her.

melindeeloo: Never having traveled I find stories of people tooling around Europe to be very appealing. It was fun to 'see' the sights on this older ladies' road trip.

CathyCathy: 4.5*
After reading The Runaway Wife, I was looking forward to Connie McColl’s next adventure very much. And I wasn’t disappointed. Connie is beginning to get itchy feet. Having been single again for almost three years, living in her daughter’s London apartment, Connie feels cut off from friends and family. The need for adventure beckons. Fate intervenes when Connie begins researching her family. Following the death of her aunt, a box containing old papers, letters and a marriage certificate was found in the attic. After all this time Connie discovered she has an Italian grandmother. On her way to Sussex to visit with her family the train is delayed by a fallen tree branch on the track—right near a caravan dealership. The seeds of an idea are planted.

'Connie went back to bed and managed to drift off for half an hour before she awoke yet again to thoughts of La Bellezza and her two unlikely passengers. It would be far more sensible to go for the smallest motorhome available and set off on her own. She needn’t even tell the other two because it wasn’t as if they were close friends. Or, more sensible still, get on an aeroplane, like any normal, sensible person...
