When Lucy’s childhood sweetheart stands her up on their wedding day, she finds herself alone on a plane to a tropical location. Her dream of a bairn-filled future is gone in a heartbeat and the time it takes for her to listen to the rambling drunken voicemail he left calling off the wedding.
In Naples, Elena is recently widowed and trying to keep her husband’s family’s beloved and centuries old mozzarella factory afloat, whilst running her language school and bringing up their son.
