When life gives you burnout...buy a house in Italy.

After losing her high-stress tech job and her sense of direction, thirty-year-old Freya Anderson does what any reasonable woman having a quarter-life crisis would do—she buys a crumbling Italian house online for one euro. Armed with optimism, an overpacked suitcase, and zero renovation skills, she arrives in the tiny village of Montefiore convinced she’s about to live her “Under the Tuscan Sun” fantasy.

Instead, she gets no running water, collapsing ceilings, and a neighbor who looks like he belongs in an espresso commercial—and clearly wishes she’d never moved in next door.

Cyrus Bennett planned his Italian escape down to the spreadsheet, not expecting chaos in a sundress to knock a hole through his kitchen wall. But when Freya learns her house must pass inspection in ninety days or she’ll lose it, Cyrus reluctantly agrees to help her—strictly to protect his property value, of course.

As plaster dust flies and tempers flare, their partnership becomes something neither of them planned for. Between bureaucratic disasters, nosy villagers, and simmering chemistry that no amount of caution tape can contain, Freya and Cyrus discover that sometimes you have to rebuild more than a house—you have to rebuild yourself.

The One-Euro Fix is a funny, heartwarming romance about starting over, finding home in unexpected places, and learning that the best things in life can’t be planned.
