Joy Cowley once said, "Whoever said you only live once, wasn't a reader". So grab your girlfriends, pack your bags and join Nicky Pellegrino on a lunchtime escape to the rolling, sun-drenched hills of Italy. Smell the fresh pasta, sip your limoncello and stumble down cobbled streets with us as we explore the benefits, and divine escapism, of reading fiction with one of Aotearoa's most loved and inspirational romance writers. Celebrating her new book, Marry Me in Italy. Fun and frivolity guaranteed.

A special edition of Hedley's Book Club, hosted by Read by Reid

About Nicky Pellegrino

Nicky Pellegrino was born in Liverpool and spent childhood holidays staying with her father's family in southern Italy. When she started writing fiction, it was the memories of those summers in Italy that came flooding back and flavoured her stories.

Nicky now lives in Auckland, New Zealand with her husband, dogs and horses. A former magazine editor, she combines work as a freelance journalist with writing number one bestselling novels, including Under Italian Skies, A Dream Of Italy and A Year At Hotel Gondola. Her books sell around the world and have been translated into numerous languages.
