I was in the mood for a cutesy small town romance and this one checked all the boxes and more!!! Small town romance set in Italy?? perfection!

Summer feels lost in her life and ends up drunkenly booking a trip to Italy to try and find what’s missing in her life, little does she know that in that little trip of hers she will not only find herself, but the family she was missing all along.

This book was amazing for just stepping away from reality and bit and getting transported to the olive farms in Tuscany, Sophie Sinclair described the settings with such detail that the whole book felt like a movie. It was the perfect combination between romance, humor and spice, loved every second ♥️

Thank you NetGalley and 𝘉𝘰𝘰𝘬𝘴𝘎𝘰𝘚𝘰𝘤𝘪𝘢𝘭 for a copy of “Lost In Tuscany” by Sophie Sinclair. This non spoilers review is of my own honest opinion.

If I have a midlife crisis, make it Italian. Summer is on her singles bike tour in Italy that she books while drunk (relatable). After a biking accident (and a hot Italian doctor), Summer finds herself on Nonna Rossi’s doorstep. She soon starts working for the family Olive farm and falling in love with Italy (and her boss). I feel like Nonna is the true star of this book. She is so charming and a bit scary! This book made me laugh, cry and crave Italian food. Sophie Sinclair wrote such heartwarming book, I imagine I'll be reaching for this in physical form to annotate all my favorite bits.

Cute light easy read that makes you wanna get lost in Tuscany

Summer is looking for love when she drunkingly signs up for bike ride around Tuscany. However her trip abruptly ends and she ends up on Rossi olive oil farm

Thank you NetGalley for the arc

I chose to read this book because the title reminded me of the movie "Under the Tuscan Sun." Little did I know, the Mian character loves the movie.

At first, it was cute, then it was sweet, then sexy, and finally, it was beautiful.

I rarely rate things five stars, but I truly loved this book. It had the right amount of spice with the right amount of romance.

I especially loved reading it while listening to my favourite vintage Italian summer playlist I always listen to when my husband cooks pasta.

The two main characters were both likeable, the only character who slightly annoyed me was the mom and best friend, but they were flawed like real people and both redeem themselves.

This was such a good love story and I don't know how another book will top it this year.

Summer is bored with her life and after watching "Under the Tuscan Sky" she books a bicycle tour in Italy. Her life at home is complicated with her helpless, alcoholic mother always popping up, but she goes on the tour regardless. After being injured on the bike tour she ends up deciding on staying awhile and finds a job at an olive ranch. There she meets Lorenzo. Lorenzo is smitten from the start but tries to keep away, but can't. They grow closer and enjoy spending more time together until Summer is pulled back home by her mother having an accident. This was pretty good. It was slow to start for me and I almost DNF, but picked up as I went on.

I absolutely ate this book up! The family dynamic, the humor, the LOCATION, & the adventure! Summer was relatable & I resonated with her character in ways I didn’t expect!

I loved this book so much! And the cover is absolutely beautiful! This book made me feel like I was in Italy. And the romance was perfect!

Fab read and setting. Summer makes a drunken booking for a cycling holiday in Tuscany that will change her life, but will she take a chance when she has ties back home in the states still?

This was so good! Took me back to my days living in Italy. I loved all the Italian banter, the setting which felt like another character and all the friendships made.

Just finished Lost in Tuscany by Sophie Sinclair, and wow, what a delightful escape! The beautiful descriptions of Tuscany made me feel like I was there, wandering through charming villages and vineyards. I absolutely loved the characters! They were well-developed and relatable, making the story even more engaging. The romance was swoon-worthy and perfectly paced, with just the right amount of tension and sweetness. The plot kept me hooked from start to finish with its mix of romance and adventure.

If you’re looking for a book that transports you to a dreamy Italian getaway, this one’s for you. It’s perfect for a summer read or whenever you need a little escape.

This is such a perfect summer read that wisps you away to the beautiful countryside in Italy. Between the Italian language, the scenery, the pizza and pasta the author transport s you there. OHHHH what an escape, SIGH!
Add in the sweet love story, I mean who wouldn’t want to be swooned by a handsome Italian Stallion. (Another SIGH)
I love the way Sophie Sinclair uses humor that actually made me smile and giggle a bit. There was romance, laughter, issues with alcoholism along with Summer (the main character) finding a sense of family. This story is a feel good Happily Ever After that I fell in love with.
This was my first novel by Sophie Sinclair and she has me sold. I will definitely be reading more from her..
Thank you NetGalley for this ARC and thank you to Sophie for filling my last few days dreaming of returning to Italy.

An easy read that would be great for summer. I always love an Italian setting so it had the perfect atmosphere, the story is funny and heartwarming and the characters are sweet. There is a nice balance of humour, romance and found family

A cute summer romance that flew by! Summer books a Tucson bike ride after a horribly bad date and ends up staying the full summer. It’s very Under The Tucson Sun, and a feel good, happy, predictable book. It was just a great story, the drama not overly done and I love the ending!

Take me away to Tuscany in this five-star read. I have done many a drunken click and then woken the next morning, never a holiday, but never say never, there is a certain lemon festival, or even an olive festival if I can find one that may push me over the edge. Find your passion for Italian olives and love in this amazing story that sweeps you up and reads as smoothly as the most delicious olive oil. This story will wrap you up into the pages and have you booking a peloton class in no time. Or even looking at a new bathroom suite, as a certain sales man has a wonderful story to come I hope.

Summer Andrews starts her adventures in Tuscany on a group bicycle trip that comes to an end when she injures her hand in an accident. Not ready to go home, she finds a job and housing at an olive farm. While Summer started her trip trying to escape from her life, she ends up finding love, family and happiness. I liked experiencing Tuscany through Summer's experiences and found myself rooting for her. This is a perfect summer read.

Such a fun, sweet, beach read.

This story takes place in what I would like to say a sort of Eat, Pray, Love, situation. Summer knows something is not complete in her life and she books a singles only bike tour while drunk (also, she is my spirit animal for this, because this is awesome). Not only does she go to the tour, but she gets injured and then decides to stay longer in this sweet little town.

Does Summer find what is missing from her life? Will she pedal off into the sunset with her happily ever after?

These characters give you all the feels, and it was such a great plot and story. Definitely makes you want to book a trip to a foreign country for your own version of this novel.

Perfect beach read, book club, or just because you want a good feel good read.

Thank you NetGalley and Sophie Sinclair for my E-ARC.

This checked off everything I look for in a book. Was not disappointed. Really enjoyed this book. I will read more from this author. Must read

Thank you Sophie Sinclair and @netgalley for the advanced copy!
Summer accidentally purchased a bike tour in Italy after a horrible first date and a few bottles of wine…which results in several new adventures and the most heartfelt romance with an Italian man. I loved the characters and the family dynamics that were touched in this novel. I feel like I want to sign up for a tour in Italy after this…but maybe with an electronic bike.

Definitely a cute must read #newromancebook 🥰

4.5 stars rounded up to 5. Lost in Tuscany is such a lovely book. Thirty-six year old Summer Andrews is stuck in a monotonous life and has been unlucky in love. She drunkenly books a bike tour in Italy and finds it to be nonrefundable in the sober light of day. She decides she needs an adventure hoping to meet the love of her life much like the heroine in her favorite movie. During the tour, Summer decides to prolong her stay in Italy for the summer, and lands herself on the doorstep of the Rossi Olive Farm for a job and lodging. Lorenzo Rossi is the son who is running the Italian side of the olive business. Summer must decide if her fate is to remain in Italy at Lorenzo's side.
Sophie Sinclair wrote a really heartwarming story, I found myself laughing at parts and smiling through the book. It is told only through Summer's point of view. The reader really gets to know her better and her developing relationship with the Rossi family. The setting of this small town in Tuscany was brought to life in my mind and I found myself wishing I could go visit with Nonna and to eat Lorenzo's sister's food. Summer's romantic adventure had me hooked from the start. This was my first book by this author, but will not be my last. Thank you to NetGalley and BooksGoSocial for the ARC of this book. All opinions are mine alone.

Having read all this authors Coffee Girl series and loved them I was really looking forward to this novel. Who is not to like a mad impulsive holiday in Italy? It. was an enjoyable read and the Rossi family characters were really well written. However I felt all the American ones fell flat and I’m afraid i have to include Summer in there too. They came across as rather one dimensional. I did enjoy the story and raced through it but could have loved it more if there had been more depth. Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for giving me access to an early copy of this book.
