Description
A decades-late letter inspires a young French woman to try to reunite two star-crossed lovers in this novel by the author of The Chateau by the River. Middle school teacher by day, romance writer by night, and group knitter on Tuesday evenings, Flavie Richalet leads a fairly uneventful life—until she receives a long-delayed letter meant for a total stranger. Postmarked 1971, the yellowed envelope, addressed to an Amélie Lacombe, holds a fervent message of love and a marriage proposal, signed only with the initial E. Given her own fractured family history, Flavie is dreamily determined to learn what became of the couple . . . Flavie’s inquiries lead her to a French seaside inn—and to E. himself, a true romantic who never forgot the girl who got away so many years ago. But his protective nephew, B&B owner Romaric, isn’t sure that trying to find Amélie after all these years is good for his uncle. At odds with the tall, dark, and impossibly passionate Romaric, Flavie must show him, and perhaps herself, that true love is timeless—and always worth waiting for . . . Praise for the novels of Chloé Duval “Magical is the perfect word to describe the writing done by Chloé Duval! . . . She really has a talent for putting beauty into words, and I can’t wait to see what she writes next!” —Lady with a Quill “A tribute to love and the beginnings of passions, but also to a true and implacable feeling, which even the longest years can not destroy.” —The Shelter of Books
