Butterfly Summer is the latest novel from author Toni De Palma, which is available on Audible.

Hollywood producer for the Bride-to-Be franchise, Anna is on top of her game. She’s helped generations of women navigate the ups and downs of romance. Ironic, since her own love life is a mess.

When the Bride-to-Be finale is relocated to Ischia in Italy, Anna plans to use the opportunity to settle some family affairs. And perhaps solve an old mystery of her own. Delia.

Decades before, at the age of seventeen, Anna had spent a summer with her aunt on the lush island. Far from an idyllic vacation, she made few friends and learned her aunt had been hiding secrets from the family.


Now she’s going back to sell her aunt’s house and finish up the show’s season finale.

As the crew get ready to roll the cameras, all havoc breaks loose. The newest bride-to-be is missing. The groom’s partying has been all over social media. And the sale of the house is shrouded in mystery, with an anonymous buyer.

Both Anna’s personal and professional lives crash in on her. With only hours left until the finale, Anna must find a solution for the show. And face the events that still haunt her from that long ago summer.

Butterfly Summer is roughly 7 hours and 22 mins of glorious listening time. It has you hooked as soon as it begins. As Toni has some very vivid descriptions of Ischia, which draw you in and really help you visualise the setting, and long for a trip to Italy.

As a story, it’s extremely well-plotted, with many layers and lots of emotional depth, from the characters’ friendship to the twists throughout. It’s an intriguing but thoroughly enjoyable summer read.
