One summer on a beautiful island could change everything…

Valentina Taylor's life has been upended. With her marriage over, and unsure of what her future holds, she heads to the Isle of Skye for the summer with her young son, Barnaby.

But the journey there sets her on a new path, when she meets Xander Courage on the train – a charming American, running from problems of his own. After sparks fly, they go their separate ways. But on this small island, they’re never far from one another…

Skye offers Valentina the refuge she needs as she whiles away the long summer days at her beachside cottage, enjoying visits from her sisters, Thea and Ezzie. But when bad news from home throws her Scottish idyll into turmoil, Valentina finds herself pulled away from the place – and people – that she loves.

Valentina knows she must confront her heart’s desires – but can she let go of the past and embrace the future she deserves?

Lose yourself in a heartfelt story of second chances, love, and self-discovery, set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Isle of Skye. Perfect for fans of Sarah Morgan and Karen Swan.

How good was it to be back on the Isle of Skye and with the Wynter sisters again. 

I felt right at home in this book very quickly, and it was wonderful getting to know Valentina and her son Barnaby a whole lot better. 

While catching up with everyone from the previous two books. 

And Valentina who is just on Skye for the the summer, is hoping for a nice peaceful break to regroup before knowing she needs to move on with her life. 

But between chance meetings of Americans on the train from Inverness, to a horrible accident involving her ex-husband, there is a whole lot going on for her suddenly, and I really felt for her being pulled in various directions. 

And add in all of that she discovers messages from a DNA site,  which throw her into turmoil too. 

This is one action packed summer, with plenty to keep a reader entertained with.  I was totally enjoying all of it and thought it was a lovely way to end this trilogy.  

Excellent writing as always from Sue Moorcroft, and a joy to read. 

Thank you to Avon and Netgalley for this copy which I have reviewed honestly and voluntarily.
