A tale brimming with passion, betrayal and the complex desires of the heart - Three Summers is a novel to indulge all of the senses!

Evie Woods

Rich in drama, detail and description, Three Summers is a gloriously evocative tale of love and loyalty that will transport you to sun-drenched Puglia. Complex, emotional and of course heart-wrenchingly romantic, it is the perfect escape. Swan is sublime!

Veronica Henry

Sweeping, sun-soaked, and dazzlingly romantic, Three Summers captures the ache and hope of first love in a way that only Karen Swan can. It’s a story to lose yourself in, glittering with passion, beauty, and heartbreak — all so evocative, I could almost smell the lemon-scented air of 1950s Italy as I eagerly turned the pages.

Marissa Stapley, NYT-bestselling author of Lucky

The beloved master storyteller Karen Swan takes readers to sun soaked Puglia in Three Summers. Evocative, romantic and atmospheric, Rafaella Parisi is torn between two loves in post-war Italy, and must choose between tradition and her own heart's desire. True love and redemption await her when the truth is revealed. Bellissima!

Adriana Trigiani, bestselling author of The View from Lake Como

Beautifully written. So many twists and turns between two entwined families! I was gripped.
