She’s armed with logic, science, and a healthy dose of sarcasm. But finding herself might mean breaking her own rules.

Northern Italy, 1997.
Ready to leave the angst, loneliness, and heavy expectations of her teens behind, Lee (Leda Balni) enters college with one mission: build a happy life on her own terms. Recovering from an eating disorder and finally at peace with her own oddities, “tomboy” Lee is determined to prove that independence is the ultimate shield. Who needs romance when you’re busy navigating a demanding genetic engineering degree?

But life in Milan has other plans.

From zipping through fashionable city streets on a scooter to seeking quiet clarity by the breathtaking northern lakes, Lee’s world gets beautifully, comically chaotic. Just when she’s classified love as a dangerous distraction to avoid at all costs, she stumbles straight into her soulmate.

Now, the ultimate experiment begins. Can a fiercely self-reliant scientist-in-the-making let someone into her world without losing herself?

Blending ’90s nostalgia with a deeply honest exploration of identity, Finding Leda is a funny, messy, and empowering journey about building happiness from the ground up, finding meaning in your own existence, and discovering the brilliant chaos of letting the right people see you.

A moving and addictive story of self-discovery, women in STEM, and the life-saving bonds of chosen family, Finding Leda captures the music, atmosphere, and restless spirit of European youth in the late 1990s.

The fifth installment of The Italian Saga, Finding Leda can be enjoyed on its own.

Perfect for fans of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel and I’ll Give You the Sun, this empowering story is about finding yourself beyond romance—even when star-crossed love refuses to be ignored.
