Retreat to Bleecker Street: Jade Island Book 1 (Signed Paperback)

Retreat to Bleecker Street is a coming of age romance featuring 20-year-old Melissa Rizzi. Melissa’s love story unfolds when she reunites with her long-distance high school sweetheart, Theo, for the holidays, after a long semester away at college. Instead of welcoming her into his open arms, he blindsides her with an abrupt decision to break up. To mend her shattered heart, she travels across the country to spend New Years Eve in NYC with her three BFFs. While trying to forget her ex in the Big Apple, Melissa unexpectedly runs into Chris, the first boy she fell head over heels for many summers ago on Jade Island. A flame is rekindled, leading Melissa to the most romantic back-to-back nights of her life.

Melissa only has Chris on her mind when she travels back home and finds a regretful Theo sitting on her front porch, begging her for a second chance. She is faced with a major decision: Does she accept Theo’s apology or take a chance on Chris, thousands of miles away?

Retreat to Bleecker Street is a love letter to all readers who want to revisit a time of flip phones, instant messaging, and custom-mixed CDs.
