The Pink Door of Positano. The Doorways Series, #1

A pink door. A seaside villa. A holiday that refuses to go quite as planned. Positano, 1953. Louisa "Lulu" Penrose arrives on the Amalfi Coast with her spirited Aunt Mrs. Dalrymple, expecting sunshine, sea air, and a perfectly pleasant escape from ordinary life. With its pastel houses, steep stone steps, glittering water, and one unforgettable pink door, Positano seems made for romance, postcards, and a little harmless daydreaming.
But Lulu soon discovers that travel has a way of rearranging one's expectations. Between seaside cafés, elegant hotels, crowded harbors, and a surprise voyage through the Greek Isles, Lulu finds herself swept into a trail of amusing misunderstandings, suspicious coincidences, and curious behavior from people who may know more than they let on. Some jewels attract the wrong sort of attention, detectives who are not nearly as discreet as they believe, and a handsome Englishman whose charm is matched only by his talent for being maddeningly difficult to understand.
Stuart Cameron is intriguing, infuriating, and inconveniently memorable. Yet Lulu is not the sort of girl to lose her head over a man simply because he appears at the right café, says the wrong thing beautifully, and looks entirely too composed while doing it. And then there is Edward Morgan, a new friend, whose involvement in her travel plans brings a different kind of distraction and possible complication.
As Lulu's holiday carries her from the pink door of Positano to sunlit decks, foreign ports, and the sparkling confusion of 1950s travel, she must sort through mixed signals, misplaced suspicions, family opinions, and her own inconvenient curiosity. The Pink Door of Positano is a lighthearted romantic mystery full of vintage travel charm, cozy intrigue, witty misunderstandings, slow-burn romantic tension, and the kind of adventure that begins with a beautiful view and ends with far more questions than anyone packed for.
Book One in a six-book European escape series, this series follows romance, mystery, and old-world glamour from one unforgettable door to the next. Each installment opens with a new destination, a new puzzle, and the promise of love unfolding slowly beneath sunlit terraces, moonlit streets, grand hotels, seaside villas, and all the delightful complications of travel.
