Three years since they last saw each other. Two months to untangle their complicated past. One unforgettable Italian summer.

Childhood best friends Cammie Lovett and West Jacobs haven’t spoken since their first kiss ended in disaster. Now, after getting rejected from her dream field school, Cammie is joining her renowned archaeologist mom in Italy for the summer—while secretly planning to find her biological father. Meanwhile, West is avoiding a major life decision by—what else?—crashing his dad’s work trip abroad.

When the two find themselves at the same Italian villa, their plan to avoid each other crumbles like a Roman ruin. Armed with her mom’s old journal, Cammie is determined to stay focused—until West discovers her mission and insists on tagging along. As their second-chance adventure takes them down the Southern Italian coast and through the messy details of their past, Cammie and West begin to realize that maybe—just maybe—their own history isn’t quite as ancient as they thought.

"Part scavenger hunt, part second-chance romance, and entirely full of heart, this book will have you turning pages—and booking a trip to Italy!—as fast as you possibly can." —Kayla Olson, USA Today bestselling author of The Lodge and The Reunion

"Funny, heartwarming, and romantic, Ancient History Between Us filled me with wanderlust and had me craving pizza and gelato. A perfect read to make you believe in the power of love and family under a warm Italian sun!"—Becky Dean, author of Hearts Overboard

"A delightful romp of a romance about family, second chances, and finding your own path in life. From Kaitlyn's signature wit to the gorgeous Italian settings, I adored every minute of this adventure. It's impossible not to fall in love with Cammie and West!"—Ana Holguin, author of Up Close & Personal

“With her signature humor, heart, and irresistible chemistry — Kaitlyn Hill’s Ancient History Between Us is a sun-soaked YA romance that proves she’s a star of the genre.” —Nina Moreno, author of Don't Date Rosa Santos and Our Way Back to Always

"Hill’s latest weaves adventurous moments into a sweet love story that explores identity, love, and family. A charming and accessible romance set against an appealing backdrop." —Kirkus Reviews

"An engaging story about first love and self-discovery....[An] innocent and captivating story reminiscent of Jenna Evans Welch’s Love and Gelato and Stephanie Perkins’s Anna and the French Kiss." —School Library Journal

Kaitlyn Hill is a writer who lives to tell love stories and make people laugh. While books make up most of her personality, Kaitlyn also enjoys messy reality TV, has never met a tea she didn't like, and thrives on overly ambitious home improvement projects. She resides in Kentucky with her real life romance hero. Kaitlyn is the author of Love from Scratch, Not Here to Stay Friends, and Wild About You. View titles by Kaitlyn Hill
