Bride and groom Carla Cavalcanti and Oliver Schäfer have been together for 25 years and are getting married on board on the anniversary of the day they first met. Carla is from the Piedmont region and studied literature, but never worked outside the home, preferring instead to support Oliver in his career and tend to their home and garden. However, Carla has secretly written a novel, which, originally intended as a surprise wedding gift for Oliver, is now on its way to becoming a bestseller.
