A wife who has forgotten her own beauty and allure. A distant, distracted husband. A smart, candlelit dinner party, witty conversation, and a charmingly rugged vineyard owner from South Africa. So begins Santa Montefiore´s powerful and poignant novel in which a woman who finds herself in a common predicament must confront the most unlikely aspects of herself.

´I hope you don´t mind my writing to you,´ begins the first e-mail bestselling children´s book author Angelica receives from Jack. Surely it can´t do any harm to indulge in a mild flirtation. After all, she wouldn´t risk her stable marriage and the happiness of her treasured children. But things don´t stop at an e-mail, and when Angelica goes to Cape Town for a book tour, her affair with Jack begins in earnest. On their last day together, he makes a stunning confession, and now everything Angelica thought she knew about love and passion, safety and experience, right and wrong are entirely upended once again.
