Let Elizabeth Adler sweep you away to the dramatic cliffs and azure waters of Italy’s Amalfi coast, in this New York Times bestselling novel of secrets, memories, and love…

The secrets of her past lie in Italy
Lamour Harrington’s husband died two years ago. It is the second time she has lost a man she loved to a tragedy: her father died in a mysterious boating accident when she was seventeen. When a devastating discovery about her husband’s death leaves Lamour feeling stunned and betrayed, she returns to the house on the lush Amalfi coast where she'd lived with her father during the happiest years of her childhood.

and so does unexpected love…
But the house of her memories has secrets all its own, forcing her to face new truths about another man she once loved. Was her father’s death truly accidental? Or was he hiding something that caused his early demise? Torn between two mysterious and compelling men who have now entered her life, Lamour discovers that the past has a way of returning when you least expect it. And someone wants to ensure that Lamour doesn’t uncover the secrets of this idyllic, dreamy coastal getaway. As the past and the present collide in a shattering and suspenseful climax, Lamour must face the things she fears the most, in order to find the courage to live life to the fullest.

“Magnificent!”

A very good book about a 37 year woman who must confront her past and deal with the two men who left her by dying, in order to enjoy her future--a new love.
