All Stevie Choi ever wanted was a cozy life in suburbia--a loving husband, adorable kids, a dog. That simple dream shattered into a million pieces when she was only seventeen. She's spent the years since trying to outrun the pain and make something of herself, if only to prove to her estranged family that she's happy and successful--even though she's secretly yearning for another chance at love. If only she believed she deserved it . . . So, Stevie drowns herself in her job, and in the low season, "dates" new countries, leaving her Utah home-base to circle the globe, from Paris to Cairo to Cabo San Lucas, curating a gorgeous Instagram feed--while spending every New Year alone. Then one frigid January day in Rome she meets Cristian. He would be her perfect match--if they weren't separated by continents and obligations. Unable to say goodbye, they agree that if they're both single at seventy, they'll marry each other if only to have a fun companion to travel with. . . . But through the years, their friendship grows into something more, and suddenly it's up to Stevie to choose happiness . . . Sparkling with hope, All Roads Lead to Rome soulfully examines all the ways a tender heart can be broken--and how faith in the future--and in oneself--can make it whole again
