The Summer of '95

"It sounds like an overly clichéd romantic tale of a teenage girl who goes to Italy and finds the love of her life. I suppose that’s it, in fact. But it’s just… not. Probably because it doesn’t end happily, but still doesn’t end unhappily, like most things in life. Probably because of whom he was. He wasn’t the town’s bad boy. He wasn’t some overly romantic Italian guy. Hell, he wasn’t even hot. But in spite of this, for a few months, I loved him. More than I can say." A girl goes to Italy in the summer before her gap year. She lives with an Italian family on the countryside where she hopes to find the man of her dreams and fall in love... and she does, but the man that she loves is not at all what she expected.

I wasn't even born in the year 95, and reading the story it is evident that it is more matured than the books written in here..

I think that it was a good creative decision to avoid using cliches, not usually my genre, but your prologue was interesting enoug for me to read on

Intriguing start, although at times it did sound confusing. I wonder will this tale be about her finidng her husband or of the love she had before?
