Italy and Forever: The BRAND NEW sunkissed escapist Italian romance with a wedding setting from Leonie Mack for 2026

Wedding planner Ginny Weller is an unashamed romantic, optimist and believer in happy-ever-afters.

But after a string of disastrous boyfriends, even Ginny is beginning to have doubts. She decides the only course of action is to embark on a self-imposed dating ban. After all, her friends keep telling her that love will arrive when she stops looking.

A few months into the experiment, Ginny’s not convinced. The only man who has set her heart racing is grumpy photographer Rhys, and that was in annoyance rather than passion.

With a dream wedding in Italy to attend, Ginny and Rhys have no option but to spend time together. As the idyllic landscape of the Dolomites weaves its magic, she discovers a softer side to Rhys – and the secrets he’s been keeping – and her heart begins racing for all sorts of other reasons.

Can Ginny’s dating ban survive the most romantic country of all or will the dolce vita – and the ruggedly handsome Rhys - prove impossible to resist?
