About this listen

‘Perfect summer reading in a nutshell’ – Rachel Gilbey

The ovens are pre-heating, the Prosecco is chilling…and The Sunshine and Biscotti Club is nearly ready to open its doors.

But the guests have other things on their minds…

Libby: The Blogger
Life is Instagram-perfect for food blogger Libby…until she catches her husband cheating just weeks before her Italian cooking club’s grand opening.

Evie: The Mum
Eve’s marriage isn’t working, but she’s not dared admit it until now. A trip to Italy to help Libby open The Sunshine and Biscotti Club might be the perfect escape…

Jessica: In Love with her Best Friend
Jessica has thrown herself into her work to shut out the memory of the man who never loved her back. The same man who’s just turned up in Tuscany…

Welcome to Tuscany’s newest baking school – where your biscotti is served with a side of love, laughter and ice-cold limoncello!

Sunshine and Biscotti is just what it says on the tin...
An Italian holiday destination meets baking, decorating, cosy atmosphere, old friends and mixed up romances. The characters are mainly likeable and most of them follow their hearts and grow into their authentic selves during a summer of taking stock of their lives, whilst doing up an old hotel and getting to know each other again. 💗

Italy, baking and cosy atmosphere in the same book

Sunshine, cooking, and a bit of romance - how could you go wrong? I was looking for an easy escapist read with a little something to pique my interest but sadly, it was all just predictable and dull. The chopping and changing between characters every chapter was confusing and unnecessary. The female characters were all angst ridden and neurotic. The male ones were all boringly shallow. If any of them had had any depth to their character one might have felt a little understanding but as it was, they just irritated me! All in all, disappointingly dull and boring!

Disappointingly dull and boring.
