Description
Carolyn's decision to leave her familiar routine and escape to the Canary Islands is prompted by her daughter's words: "get a life." She arrives in time for her mother's 70th birthday celebration, only to be surprised by Bryan Spencer, her high school summer love. Seven years have passed since Carolyn lost her husband, but she has grown increasingly withdrawn. The gentle affection of her mother and the island's beauty begin to draw her out of her shell. As she navigates this new chapter, Carolyn must confront whether it's too late for her to trust Bryan again. A chance encounter with Bryan sparks a rekindling of feelings, but can Carolyn believe that he has changed? The islands' unique culture and natural beauty provide the perfect backdrop for her journey of self-discovery. As she reflects on her past and considers her future, Carolyn is reminded of Christopher Columbus's voyage from the Canary Islands in 1492. This novel explores themes of love, loss, and new beginnings as Carolyn embarks on a path towards healing and rediscovery.
