Path of Love: Cinque Terre, Italy — M.L. Buchman / Matthew Lieber Buchman

-a Love Abroad B&B romance- Welcome to the Cinque Terre, the jewel of the Italian Coast. In shades of warm gold, apricot, and peach, these remote stone villages face the Mediterranean. Their narrow cobbled streets are car-free. Instead they're filled with soft sunlight and hope. Erica Barnett always dreamed of visiting Italy. But she never planned to arrive alone and devastated. Putting her life back together ranks as a distant second to the priority of fixing her heart. Ridley Claremont III, wealthy son of a Californian vintner and his trophy wife, discovers the shallowness of his life when his parents are killed in a car wreck. Seeking forgetfulness on a motorcycle driving the European backroads, he stumbles into the tiny cliffside town of Corniglia. Vibrant life greets him around every corner: food and flowers, gelato and friendship. And the wine, most especially the wine. A man who never faced himself and a woman who finally has, meet in the only place they can. Along the Via dell'Amore, the Path of Love, in Cinque Terre, Italy.
