Publisher's summary

Set against a gloriously rugged Cornish backdrop, two lives are about to be changed forever... 

The audiobook to fall in love with this summer - perfect for fans of Fern Britton, Liz Fenwick and Veronica Henry. 

Oliver Foxley is an acclaimed movie star and global heartthrob. But under the glare of the spotlight his 'perfect' life - and marriage - is slowly starting to crumble. 

Cara Penhaligon is a struggling young Cornish artist and widowed mother of two children. Life has been unbearably harsh to Cara, but meeting Oliver might just give her a second chance at the happiness she deserves. 

As each begins to heal the other, the pieces of Oliver's frustrating jigsaw puzzle effortlessly fall into place. But as the Cornish summer draws to a close, Oliver faces the toughest of choices, and no one emerges quite as they were at the start.

Overall intense and sad, not lighthearted& fun

Was hopeful that it would pay off, but in my opinion it had more sadness than hope. Everyone is complicated which is fine, but in a sad way, without much redeeming value for the length of this book. If you want a book with complicated emotional characters, dealing with sad past and presents, and hard life choices, then you might like it. I was hoping for a light, hopeful read, and it wasn't that.

A storyline that stays with you!

This audio book is full of wonderful characters – some good, some bad. The story draws you in from the beginning and never lets you down with the surprises that keep cropping up. I kept looking for excuses to leave real life and immerse myself in Kate Ryder's created world. The descriptions of Cornwall are lovely and make you want to be in the beautiful landscape, meeting these characters. The story is intriguing, with many obstacles for the characters to overcome and a surprise at the end - I'm so pleased there's a sequel! The storyline will stay with you long after you've finished listening.

A real feeling of Cornwall

The story was a little dark in places dealing with emotional issues but the description of Cornwall was enjoyable. Very good story line too
