About this listen

Soundings and Choc Lit present the audio edition of A Villa in Portofino.

When hotel cleaning temp and poetry academic Megan Morrison finds out she's inherited an Italian villa and small fortune from her estranged great-great aunt Olwen, she doesn’t quite know how to react. That is, until she travels to Portofino to see Il Giardino delle Rose for herself. Then she knows exactly what she has to do: live there! Enchanted by the beauty of the house and gardens, fascinated by the history and more than a little intrigued by handsome hired landscape gardener Gideon West, Megan can immediately see the villa's potential as a dream home. But having long-lost relatives sometimes means long-lost secrets - and it seems that Olwen had plenty of those....

Enjoyed the story line was just a nice pleasant read. End had a nice twist but thoroughly enjoyed it. Italian accents seemed pretty good too.

Just lovely

Our heroine is at rock bottom and when she gets a surprise inheritance, moves to Italy and has to deal with renovations, restoring a magical garden to its forma glory, unveil a literary mystery and her family secrets, plus deal with a scheming local.
The book is entertaining and we get transported to its Italian setting with very British characters. Got to admit there was a tad too much inner monologue towards the middle of the book, but it still kept me intrigued to The end.
The narration was outstanding, Polly Edsell did all the different accents beautifully and the story is more enjoyable for it.

Really enjoyed the
