My Review
5☆ Had Me Dreaming of Tuscany!
Dreaming of Tuscany is a Heartwarming read about finding oneself, friendships in a stunning location.
I'm a HUGE fan of T.A. Williams and always look forward to reading his books. Especially as i know there will always feature a gorgeous fur Baby.
This time round it's the adorable young pup Romeo. Oh how I love his name, he's a lil scamp.
Bee and Mimi both recovering from a freak accident on the stage they are working on.
Bee was in a coma and was burnt pretty badly.
So their company has asked Bee to recuperate with Mimi a Hollywood megastar as they both disappear from the press and public eye for a bit.
They end up in a remote villa in Tuscany.
Villa of Montegrifone, owned by elderly couple Umberto and Ines.
But will Bee and Mimi become friends, and will they both thrive after having time to reflect and get away from the hustle and bustle.
Can their identity and whereabouts stay a secret?
I loved Bee and Mimi's characters they are polar opposites. Mimi is a Demanding Diva and Bee is endearing, warm, kind and recovering from her burns. But in a strange way once they let their guard down they learn to compliment and accept each other it was beautiful to watch.
As always Trevor has created a Stunning location, that was seamlessly descriptive, and it made me feel like i was transported right there, I could picture and feel everything.
All the scrumptious food had my tummy grumbling.
The Characters were loveable, endearing and beautifully written.
Trevor has this wonderfull knack of storytelling with a lot of heart and passion, once you start one of his books you never want to leave it.
Dreaming of Tuscany had me doing exactly what the title suggests!
This beautifully written, enchanting story is full of warmth, love, unlikely friendships and loveable characters.
It's deliciously heart-warming, funny and feel-good, perfect for lifting your spirits with a lil piece of escapism
So Prepare to be whisked away and charmed by this utterly enchanting tale!

Excerpt
They took the pads off her eyes about an hour later. The lights in the private room had been dimmed and the blinds drawn, and at first all Bee could see were three vague shapes. As her eyes adjusted and her focus sharpened, she felt an overwhelming wave of relief wash over her. She made out two men and a woman standing around the bed. The man nearer to her was the first to talk.
‘Miss Kingdom… Beatrice, I’m Dr Esposito and this is my colleague, Dr Bianchi.’ He was speaking Italian and he started slowly, but seeing her comprehension, he gradually speeded up. He didn’t introduce the nurse, but from the friendly smile on her face, Bee deduced it had to be Rosa and did her best to smile back at her, although how much of it would be visible beneath the dressings was unclear.
‘Hello. Thank you for taking such good care of me.’
‘You’re very welcome. It’s not often we have patients from Hollywood here.’ He repeated Dr Bianchi’s words, but Bee decided not to break the news to him that she had never been to the US, let alone Hollywood. ‘We’re all delighted you’ve pulled through. We were a bit worried about you for a while, but you’re making good progress now.’ The specialist stepped a bit closer and leant towards her face. ‘Now, can you see me quite clearly? How many fingers am I holding up?’
‘Fingers? Three. And, yes, my eyesight’s really fine, thank you. And I can hear you loud and clear as well, although there’s a lot of ringing in my ears.’
‘Don’t worry about the tinnitus. It’s only to be expected after the sort of damage you’ve incurred. It’ll gradually calm down, but it may take a few more days.’
Bee nodded, reassured. ‘But what about my face?’
The two doctors exchanged glances and it was Dr Bianchi who replied. In the background, Bee saw Dr Esposito motion towards the nurse who went over to the window and opened the blinds. Light flooded into the room and Bee blinked, delighted to find she could see everything with complete clarity.
‘It’s only the left side of your head and face we have to worry about. Your ear and neck were protected to a certain extent by your hair, but your scalp and your left cheek have suffered some burns and lots of little shrapnel wounds – mainly caused by broken glass, I’m afraid.’
‘Will I be scarred for life?’ Bee was pleased to hear her voice sounding level and measured – very different from the turmoil inside her head.
‘We don’t really know at this stage, Beatrice. We’ll have to keep the dressings on for a while until the skin starts to heal, and then it’ll be a few more weeks before we can say definitely. But I’m confident that by the end of the summer you’ll be looking much more like your old self.’
‘But not exactly like before?’
She saw the doctors exchange glances again. It was Dr Bianchi who replied once more.
‘We’ll do our very best, Beatrice, but it’ll be a slow process, and there’s no way of knowing at this stage what the final outcome will be.’ He smiled encouragingly. ‘But there’s a lot we can do to help you and, remember, it’s only cosmetic. None of your internal organs have been damaged, your brain’s returned to normal, and you can see and hear as well as before. So, just try to relax and rest assured that we’ll do our very best for you. You’ve been very lucky.’
