The Things We'll Never Have audiobook

Everleigh’s dreams are crushed when her fiancé disappears weeks before the wedding she was counting on to color her otherwise dull existence in 1964 London. Driven by a need for closure and armed with letters from Gualtiero’s family as clues, Everleigh travels to Italy, convinced that he has returned to his roots. But when the man everyone claims is Gualtiero walks in the room, she finds herself staring into the face of a stranger.

Everleigh’s quest is no longer to find out where her fiancé is, but who he is. Her search takes an enthralling twist as she forges alliances with two unlikely companions. Together, they peel back the layers of hidden truths to unearth shocking revelations that set them on a collision course and shatter the foundation of everything they believed about family… and even their own identities.

A 2024 Eric Hoffer Book Award finalist and winner of the Historical Fiction Company's “Highly Recommended” Award of Excellence, The Things We’ll Never Have is a gripping tale of kinship, broken trust, and self-discovery painted against the vibrant backdrop of 1960s Italy.

Meet the author

I first tried to write a novel in my teenage years but the story came to an abrupt halt at the first sentence of Chapter Two. I simply didn’t know enough about the world to write that story.

So, I spent the next few decades exploring, discovering, and learning about this wonderful and crazy world.

I’ve climbed volcanoes, hiked mountains, swam in bioluminescence at night. I made a home in Italy, became a mum there, mastered the language, immersed myself in the culture, and even won a national karate championship.

Then I moved to the US where I picked back up my childhood dream and in 2021 that dream came true when From Ashes to Song was published!

It's been a joyride ever since. From Ashes to Song was nominated for the WCoNA Book of the Year. The Things We’ll Never Have won an Award of Excellence from the Historical Fiction Company and was a finalist for the 2024 Eric Hoffer Book Award.

I love connecting with you, readers, so I leaped at the chance to launch my own online store, removing the middleman and offering readers unique purchasing options, including autographed books.

However you discovered my books and wherever you purchase them, I hope you enjoy being transported to a different time and place. May the journey add a dash of joy and inspiration to your life!

Happy reading!
