About this listen

 The most heart-warming novel you'll read this year, from the Queen of Feelgood Fiction
Venice. The perfect setting for romance, and for secrets to be shared.

Fen can't believe her luck. A luxury holiday with her beloved grandmother Disa - what could be more delightful? It doesn't cross her mind that she might fall in love. Or that love can bring complications . . .

Jamie can't help it that women always fall for him, rather than for his kind-hearted friend Leon. Nor that only one of them got the looks (that would be Jamie). But how will he feel if the girl he's drawn to only has eyes for Leon?

Disa has a secret. A few weeks ago, an old letter in a file revealed a shocking truth about her late husband. She's come to Venice to find out more.

There's news on the way that will reverberate through all their lives, as Jill Mansell's joyful, heartbreaking new novel takes readers on a roller coaster ride of emotion - and makes us believe in love again.

Beautiful Story

Always love a Jill Mansell. I loved all the characters here. They were all very different. Mostly I love how I can tolerate the tragedy in Jill’s books when I can’t in others. Love her she writes and rescues them. She stays in my rose coloured world.
If there was a niggly bit without giving any spoilers, it was strange that no dissenting voices were written in, at the resolution we were expecting. Just a little not realistic enough. Many people are judgemental. Even if the couple didn’t feel guilty. Not even Leon’s parents??

Typical Jill - my happy place

Thoroughly enjoyed the story and shed a few tears in the middle. Would have liked further development with some of the other characters in the book, maybe that is to come.

Excellently read by Karen Cass
