🇮🇹✨ ARC Review: As Long as It Takes by Jill Francis

If you're looking for the perfect summer escape, add this one to your TBR.

Lora Brooks travels to a small town on the Italian Riviera to claim citizenship through her late father's family line, hoping it will help her secure opportunities for her postdoctoral research. Instead, she finds community, purpose, and an unexpected connection with Andrea, the town's mayor.

This is my second ARC from Jill Francis, and she is quickly becoming a favorite. The Italian setting is stunning, the supporting cast feels like family, and I loved how Lora's research on Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs mirrored her own journey throughout the story.

The citizenship plot requires a little suspension of disbelief, but once the story settles into Italy, I was completely invested.

If you've been following my reviews, you know I've been chasing books that capture the magic of Italy since returning from my trip. This one delivered.
