When Katy’s mother dies, she is left reeling. Carol wasn’t just Katy’s mom, but her best friend and first phone call. She had all the answers and now, when Katy needs her the most, she is gone. To make matters worse, their planned mother-daughter trip of a lifetime looms: to Positano, the magical town where Carol spent the summer right before she met Katy’s father. Katy has been waiting years for Carol to take her, and now she is faced with embarking on the adventure alone. But as soon as she steps foot on the Amalfi Coast, Katy begins to feel her mother’s spirit. Buoyed by the stunning waters, beautiful cliffsides, delightful residents, and, of course, delectable food, Katy feels herself coming back to life. And then Carol appears—in the flesh, healthy, sun-tanned, and thirty years old. Katy doesn’t understand what is happening, or how—all she can focus on is that she has somehow, impossibly, gotten her mother back. Over the course of one Italian summer, Katy gets to know Carol, not as her mother, but as the young woman before her. She is not exactly who Katy imagined she might be, however, and soon Katy must reconcile the mother who knew everything with the young woman who does not yet have a clue. “Rebecca Serle is known for her powerful stories that tug at the heartstrings—and her latest is just as unforgettable” ( Woman’s World ) as it effortlessly shows us how to move on after loss, and how the people we love never truly leave us. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Dimensions | 5.31 x 0.72 x 8.25 inches | | Edition | Reprint | | Isbn 10 | 1982166800 | | Isbn 13 | 978-1982166809 | | Item Weight | 2.31 pounds | | Language | English | | Print Length | 288 pages | | Publication Date | March 7, 2023 | | Publisher | Atria | ## Images ![One Italian Summer: A Novel - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81epvYDIxsL.jpg) ![One Italian Summer: A Novel - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81bmCL933tL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Format** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Take me to the Amalfi Coast Please *by on Reviewed in the United States July 27, 2026* This was my first Rebecca Serle book, and it definitely won’t be my last.I completely fell in love with the Amalfi Coast setting, but what stayed with me most was Katy’s journey through grief, love, and self discovery. Rebecca Serle has a beautiful way of blending a touch of magic into a story that feels deeply emotional and relatable.This book reminded me to appreciate the people we love and to embrace the life we’re living right now. It was thoughtful, emotional, and left me thinking long after I finished.I can’t wait to read more from this author. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wonderful *by on Reviewed in the United States July 23, 2026* This is not a book I would have picked up on my own. It was a reading group selection from my library. I absolutely loved it. The characters and places, the food! It was described perfectly! By the time I finished the book I was dying for Italian food. I went out and bought the stuff and made an Italian dish from scratch. Wonderful. I recommend! ### ⭐⭐⭐ reflective magical realism *by on Reviewed in the United States January 28, 2026* I love Rebecca Serle’s writing. It’s a breeze to read through and it really transports you into the world.Overall, this book was so reflective. I truly felt the grief that Katy was feeling and understood and could relate to the feelings she had about her mother after losing her. There are some things you never stop and think about or question until perhaps it’s too late.Spoilers ahead:I loved the magical realism aspect of this book and the twists towards the end, however I really could not get on board with the cheating trope. Magical realism or not, I just didn’t like it.I didn’t like the disconnection with her husband from the beginning and then felt she was so unfair to him the entire time. It felt very selfish and unfair even though she was grieving. I can’t justify it because time travel or not, it actually happened and she was conscious of her betrayal as it was happening and then it was like it never happened.With all that being said, I understand the concept of her mother being her true love and herself feeling lost without her but I still can’t love past it. She was lost in her grief, I get it but I feel for Eric.I still very much enjoyed the book and the story. I loved the scenery and the writing. ## Frequently Bought Together - One Italian Summer: A Novel - In Five Years: A Novel - Every Summer After --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/464161441-one-italian-summer-a-novel](https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/464161441-one-italian-summer-a-novel) --- *Product available on Desertcart Saudi Arabia* *Store origin: SA* *Last updated: 2026-08-15*
