Amore and Other Disasters
Paperback – January 8, 2026
by Sienna Waters

Amore and Other Disasters is a witty, warmhearted lesbian romance about second chances, cultural misadventures, and falling in love when you least expect it.

Lucia Fitzroy is barely holding her life together. She lives in her sister’s garage, avoids Italy at all costs, and teaches night-school Italian because it is the closest she will let herself get to the country that once shattered her heart. Romance is firmly off the syllabus.

Then Lark Thatcher walks into her classroom.

Lark is chaotic, kind, and perpetually between jobs. She has just moved back in with her mum and somehow manages to introduce herself as a “small horse” on the very first day of class. Despite her messiness, she has a way of seeing Lucia that is impossible to ignore.

When a mysterious benefactor sends the entire class on a surprise trip to Florence, Lucia and Lark are forced to work together to plan the journey. Between limoncello mishaps, terrible picnic wine, and feelings neither of them intended to catch, something unexpected begins to grow.

But loving someone who cannot stay is dangerous, especially when the country that once broke Lucia’s heart is calling her back.

Romantic, funny, and filled with irresistible travel charm, Amore and Other Disasters is a delightful paperback romance about healing, risk, and choosing love even when it feels terrifying.
