Carolina Mountcastle has everything she could ever want: a sexy, attentive husband, a terrific teenage son, and a successful career as a florist and decorator in New York. Then, without warning, tragedy strikes.
Carolina's husband, an international business executive, suffers a fatal heart attack. Reeling from grief and shock, she receives an even more devastating blow: he was having a long-term affair with a woman in Amsterdam. They shared a home - and a child.
Shattered by her husband's betrayal and obsessed with this "other woman", Carolina travels to Amsterdam to find her, intent on revenge. But forced to confront the truth about her marriage and the man she through she knew, Carolina discovers her own inner strength - and opens her heart to new possibilities.
Poignant and passionate, this is Judith Gould's richest novel yet - the tale of a woman who finds the courage to heal, to forgive and to love again . . .
