The story takes you from Tuscany, to New York's Greenwich Village, to Buenos Aires, Argentina. Like the fabulous first novel in this series, Very Valentine, Encore Valentine is filled with romance, family history and twists, and a great main character:Valentina Roncalli.
I have read many novels by Adriana Trigiani, they where all great and fabulous, and Encore, Valentine really lived up my expectations I had of it. Just as fantastic as all her other books, I enjoyed every minute of it and couldn't put it down, a must-read!!
This novel is published in the US as Brava, Valentine;
