I loved the Italian family, but the lying was unnecessary.

This is a cute story but overall I think I enjoyed the main character's relationship with her mother and the processing of her grief more than her love interest. In the end,

it was nice that she found a family. I am glad to see a romance addressing emotional abuse.
