Despre această carte audio
In a world where women are often overlooked, can Gabriella defy expectations and carve out a place for herself in a rapidly changing society?
Rome, 1913
To her mother's dismay, Gabriella Hazelwood has no interest in marriage or a quiet domestic life - not when she has big dreams of becoming a journalist. But when she meets Marco Santorelli, a handsome newspaper heir who believes in her ambitions as much as she does, Gabriella begins to wonder if she can have both a husband and a career.
Under the magical stars of Rome, their connection deepens, and a sweeping love story begins . . . until the shadow of war casts a dark cloud over Europe.
When Marco is called to the front, and his family's newspaper teeters on the brink of collapse, Gabriella steps in to help, only to face fierce resistance from those who believe a woman has no place in the newsroom. As she fights to prove herself, tradition and progress collide, loyalties are tested, and the devastating consequences of war jeopardises all that she holds close to her heart.
