Wedding planner Rosie is struggling with her grey, rain-soaked life in Ireland. Everyone dismisses her long-term dream to live in Italy as another 'mad hippy whim.' While she's busy planning other people's happy endings, grief, eviction and debt nip at her heels. Trying to stabilise her life as an entrepreneur in the middle of an economic crash is almost impossible. When her landlord suddenly doubles the rent, Rosie is left with no choice but to pack up her family, two dogs and possessions into a 20-year-old camper van and head off in search of her own happy ending in sunny Italy.She soon discovers integrating into life in a new country isn't as easy as it looks on TV, especially when the language is a minefield of accidental sexual innuendo. And trying to buy an abandoned villa in Umbria from eight crazy cousins with a longstanding family battle bubbling under the surface doesn't make it any easier. While Rosie is determined to create the perfect life for her family in Italy, despite a hurricane, a raucous family dispute and a little thing called a global pandemic to top it all off, she begins to realise that the Italian dream may be too big for her. Will she ever get to live her rosy life in Italy? Or has she bitten off more than she can chew?

Accidentally buying a derelict 22-room villa in the Italian countryside? What could possibly go wrong? When Rosie Meleady's landlord doubles her rent in cold, wet, overprice Ireland, she packs up her family, her two dogs, and all her possessions into a camper van and sets off across Europe to sunny Italy, where she plans to grow her destination wedding planning business. But it's not all sunshine and gelato, as Rosie and her family soon find out. Between a hurricane, a global pandemic, and accidentally buying a massive villa--that has definitely seen better days--in the Italian countryside, from eight cousins in the middle of a long-standing family dispute, Rosie pulls back the curtains on the less glamorous side of moving abroad, including navigating the complex layers and utter ridiculousness of buying a home in Italy; the tribulations of the COVID pandemic, which forced them to shutter their booming wedding planning business, taking their income down to zero; and the difficulty of integrating into a completely new country, culture, and language while nearly everything is shut down. Lighthearted, uplifting, and utterly escapist, A Rosie Life in Italy is HGTV meets Under the Tuscan Sun--a delightful peek under the covers of what it's like to throw caution to the wind, take a risk, and build a life you once only dreamed of.

"What do you do when your kids grow up and you are having a midlife crisis during a global pandemic? You buy a 22-room derelict villa in Italy while grocery shopping of course. Well, that is what Rosie did. Buying the house was an accident, she only went out for bananas and wine. In book two of this series, Rosie embarks on renovating her 22-room 'new' home in Italy with a non-negotiable move-in date of Christmas Eve and a translation app as her project manager. Surrounded by a cast of interesting characters, the non-Italian-speaking Irish woman learns the Italian way of life and house renovating in the new country she wants to call home. But with no heating, windows disappearing, mystery holes in the garden, water flooding the stairs, a business destroyed by the pandemic and with a move-in date that seems more laughable than doable, Rosie begins to question if she was crazy to let her fabulous midlife crisis dream run away with itself."-- Page [4] of cover.

"Having three generations of her family living under the same roof was once part of the Italian dream for Rosie. But when her party-loving, whiskey-drinking, poker-playing 85-year-old mother moves over from Ireland to Italy, Rosie’s longed for dolce vita in Umbria is anything but sweet. With a preference for bland boiled potatoes to her daughter’s Italian cooking and an aversion towards housework, Rosie’s mother’s requirements to feel at home in the Sighing House–including a smelly deep fat-frier, lots of clutter, parties and a new pup–are very different to Rosie’s vision. However, the most urgent thing on Rosie’s to-do list is not dealing with the needs of her artist mother, nor the ongoing renovation ‘what now?’ moments—such as electric wires in the chimney. Rosie has the more pressing issue of a backlog of twenty summer weddings to be planned now that Covid restrictions are lifted. But with vendors going bust, and demands of couples going extreme, Rosie needs to find a way to get through the hottest Italian summer on record without burning out or having a gelato-mountain sized melt down."-- Amazon.com.

Social Climbers by Evita de Gor is a hilarious tale of a family desperately seeking prestige and status among the worlds elite. Abraham Gold, a humble Polish migr, comes to Australia penniless. By dint of hard work, common sense and uncanny business acumen, within a few years he becomes an extremely wealthy property developer. Still, he continues to live frugally, quite content to see his constantly accumulating wealth. When he accidentally overhears a conversation about a possibility of buying an aristocratic title, he senses an opportunity to change his priorities and transform his life. After getting the necessary legal advice, he institutes a series of changes in his household. In comes the highly-recommended English butler, his residence is stylishly redecorated, and a brand new Rolls with a chauffer is ready to take Abraham and his family on a brand new adventure. As the story unfolds, the Golds experience a series of baffling setbacks and epiphanies. Their daughter, Rosie, is subjected to compulsory charm school, foreign language tutoring, European tours, and baffling beauty treatments. Various suitorsimpostors and real aristocratscompete for Ms. Golds plump hand. In the meantime, Abraham Gold has an affair with a young and voluptuous woman, who later turns out to be his sons fiance. Not to be outdone, Abrahams wife, Tania, surgically restores her youthful looks in order to better compete for her husbands fading charms. When Rosie eventually meets a man of her heart, it turns out that he is only a poor musician and a feverish search for a suitable beau must urgently resume. At long last, when Rosies wedding to an impoverished and thirty-something French comte is announced on the front pages of tabloids, it seems that the Golds have finally reached the pinnacle of high society. In a final plot twist, the wedding does take place in Venice, albeit with some unexpected changes in the cast of revelers. Throughout this heartwarming tale, the author deftly sketches all characters and cleverly resolves the stories of Abraham and Tania, Rosie and her real love, and various other members of the colourful Gold household.
