Description

When recently widowed Kerry travels to St Ives, her main reason for visiting is to take the same boat trip that took her late husband’s life in a horrific accident. Accompanied by her fiercely protective teenage son, Dan, Kerry sees the boat trip as the start of her healing process.

But when Kerry meets Italian widower, Gian, this chance encounter releases a cascade of emotions that make her question her immediate choices and her future; not only for herself but also for Dan.

Hers is a story of hope, of digging deep, of finding the strength and resolve to overcome one of the most difficult events in her life – of losing her best friend and soul mate. She discovers that, during her holiday, her coping mechanism is helping Gian, who has his own battles to face.

This is a lovely read despite the emotive subject. Lynne Florkiewicz draws on her own experiences grappling with grief. She tells it so well through the character of Kerry. There is no shying away from the daily reality of dealing with loss, how the very low 'lows' can suddenly appear and mar the day, but the author has a light touch with this heavy subject. There is a real sense of hope as Kerry finds her strength and takes risks to move forward. The story has a beautiful setting and is bound up with rich friendships, humour and love. Most of all, the author’s authenticity shines like a beacon as she tells her story through Kerry. I loved that.
