Description
Sometimes help comes from the most unlikely of hands, and sometimes getting lost is the surest way to be found.
Anica Tomlin, business major, has just learned that the man she's been planning her future around, her Global Finance professor, already has a beautiful wife and family. Ani cashes in her graduation gift to herself a little early--a trip to Tuscany--but from the moment she boards the wrong train in Pisa, her plans for solitude and self-indulgence begin to unravel around her.
When a bicycle accident thrusts Ani into the skilled hands of the dashing Dr. Cosimo Lazzaro, she reluctantly accepts his invitation to recover in his family's country villa, perched on a hilltop surrounded by the Lazzaro olive groves. But it's been a black year for olive growers all over Italy, and generations of tradition are being put to the test like never before.
Ani is swept up in the drama of life in Tuscany, the convergence of old and new, and the passions that drive people to pursue the desires of their hearts. Just as Ani begins to get her feet under her again, an unexpected turn of events leaves her doubting the very existence of happily-ever-after, unless she can learn to trust the desires of her own heart.

Advance Praise
"Becky's vivid descriptions place you right into Italy, the
quaint village, and then the lush, Tuscan countryside. I highly
recommend this book as an excellent means of escaping reality and taking
a journey you may not even realize you need...." Kelly Risser, Bestselling Author of the Never Forgotten Series.
"A romantic setting, irresistible men, and loving family relationships make this a beautiful, memorable story. If you've ever dreamed of visiting Italy, All the Way to Heaven will take you there. Visual and lyrical, this novel tickles the senses and feels like an adventure for the reader." Heather Day Gilbert, Author of God's Daughter: Vikings of the New World
"I felt like I’d wandered into the book and onto the pages myself, plunked right into the landscape of Italy. The pastry shop in the medieval city. The villa overlooking the olive tree farm. Truthfully, I didn’t want to leave. Sweet and clean, a very subtle faith thread, and a romance that finally materialized, (did it ever!)" Dora Hiers, Fiction Faith & Foodies Blog
"From its first pages, I recognized Becky Doughty as an unusually gifted writer. Pacing, tone, dialogue, romance, and especially the characters–all these, she nailed. Though marketed as mainstream young adult, its wholesome romance and light inspirational touch will delight a much wider audience, from teen to mom (that’s me) to octogenarian. It’s a stand-alone novel that is first in a series–which means I’ll be back for more." Katherine Scott Jones, Author and Blogger with She Reads Blog Network
