About
The Book:
After receiving an urgent letter
from their aging grandmother, Arianna and her cousins, Angelica and Anastasia,
return to the Contini estate in the lush countryside near Florence where they
spent their childhood summers. Arianna is engaged to a London banker who has
put a ring on her finger but doesn’t give her the happiness she desires. When
Arianna arrives in Tuscany she rediscovers herself and her forgotten passion
for the land. She also encounters true love with Lorenzo, a man who lives his
life intensely without worrying about the future.
Lorenzo, a simple farmer working
the Contini land, soon finds out that Arianna is Armando Contini’s
granddaughter. Their relationship is marred by this discovery and shortly
afterwards Lorenzo decides to go to Ireland to take over a run-down farm. The
tulip garden becomes Arianna’s refuge. She understands that true love has no
bounds and can overcome any obstacle.
The
second novel in the Contini Cousins trilogy, ‘Le Rose di Shakespeare’
(Shakespeare’s Roses) will be published in summer 2017, set in Sarah’s city of
Verona.
Sarah Mathilde Callaway lives in
fair Verona, the city perhaps best known for inspiring the setting for
Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet. Sarah spends her days taking care of the
Lamberti Tower in Verona, the iconic 12th century monument that overlooks the
northern Italian city and is the third most visited attraction (after Juliet’s
House and the Verona Arena). And she spends her evenings immersed in her
passion for writing.
Her love of storytelling and
writing began at the age of just 13, when she would draft her own versions of
English, Russian and French literature on an old typewriter. She has a degree
in writing and, in Italy, is affectionately known as the ‘Writer in the City of
Love’.
Sarah adores writing romance, pen
in hand and heart afire, while watching the wind ruffling the treetops
surrounded by people living out their own love stories in the city that
inspired the world’s greatest ever love story.
Sarah is in an unusual position:
she is one of very few Italian indie authors to have her book, The Tulip
Garden, translated into English and released internationally. She has also
written historical and contemporary novels in Italian – so there are plenty
more novels ready for translation! Sarah is a member of EWWA (European Writing
Women Association) and a member of the RWA (Romance Writers of America).
