Publisher's Summary

One magical winter's night in Venice, Didi fell in love. But it ended - and he left without even saying goodbye. Now, 13 years on, Shay Mason is back.

Of course the old spark is still there, but that's as far as it goes. Didi won't let the past unsettle her present: as manager of one of the most stunning hotels in the Cotswolds, she's happy at last and soon to be married. Anyway, Shay isn't staying. He's made a promise to his wayward father, that's all. He's going to keep it. And then he'll be gone.

But Shay's return stirs up long-forgotten emotions in idyllic Elliscombe, and the scandal that led him to leave raises its head once again. More than one person isn't telling the whole truth. The time has come for buried secrets to come to light. And it seems that this was someone's intention all along....

From the beloved and best-selling author of Maybe This Time and Three Amazing Things About You comes a fabulous new novel about love, friendship and finding the way to your best life.

Found another Romance Author!

First time listen of Jill Mansell’s books and I was delighted.
Dede and Shay had spark and tension and some good laughs.
I really wasn’t sure there was going to be a happy ever after.
I liked the way the story intertwined other people’s stories along with the main characters.
The secondary characters were fun and interesting which added to the plot.
The narrator did an excellent job.

Lovely story.

I have been listening to this on my hours commute each way to work and have thoroughly enjoyed it making the time just fly.
It’s a lovely story and the narration is extremely well done keeping you engaged. I am a lover of all types of books but found this a breath of fresh air as it’s not too heavy but good enough to keep you listening and be invested in the characters. This is my first Jill Mansell book so I’m very excited to have discovered her and will continue to buy more now.

Enjoyed it

I enjoyed this story very much. Someone said it was predictable but aren’t all romance stories? I mean that’s the nature of the genre.

Great characters, including support character, kept things interesting.

Finally, the narrator did a great job.

Highly recommended.

Wonderfully predictable ❤️

You kinda know what’s going to happen but how it gets there is typically Jill Mansell, - beautifully written & narrated. Loved it!! I used to read all JMs books and I’m back with lots to choose from and some excellent JMs to listen to.

Very predictable

The book was definitely a page turner so to speak, altho extremely predictable lots of twists and turns but you knew where it was going from halfway down the street. Worth a listen if you want something light.
