The Treasures We Seek

Thanks to a rough breakup a year ago, Kenzi Asbury has hunkered down in her comforts-mostly work, books, movies at home, and a glass of wine with her besties.
But Kenzi's friend Lauren decides to shake up her world even if she has to throw her on a plane herself. Together, they trek to Castel Gandolfo, Italy, to take part in an archaeological dig, right before Kenzi's work and family obligations are set to send her screaming for the safety of her couch.
Together in Italy, they mine the Roman Empire's past as Kenzi struggles to master her anxiety surrounding the upcoming family holiday and a huge project at work-the new headquarters for a famous designer. Not to mention that cute coworker who keeps emailing her!
Will the history buried in the earth help Kenzi make peace with her past and bravely step into a bigger, bolder life?
Fans of Barbara O'Neal and Sophie Kinsella will love this witty and enchanting tale!
