Can a chance encounter turn into a timeless love?

One birthday. One island escape. One second chance she never expected.

On the eve of her fiftieth birthday, Belinda McGuire's marriage ends and her carefully built future disappears overnight. Rather than endure sympathy and small talk at home, she escapes to a villa in Malta, hoping sun, sea and some seriously strong cocktails will help heal her broken heart.

What she doesn't expect is that the villa's onsite chef is her first love Noah, all grown up, seriously handsome, and impossible to ignore.

But when her grown-up children, estranged sister, and ex-husband arrive, old wounds and misunderstandings threaten to derail everything. Caught between the past she survived and the future she might still claim, Belinda must decide whether Malta is simply an escape, or the place where her life truly begins again.

Escape to the sublime in this feel-good story of love, family and second chances.

'Captivating, romantic and gorgeously evocative' ISABELLE BROOM
