Venice was where it all began

Libby and Will spent a glorious honeymoon in this magical city. They didn't have much money, but they had a whole lot of love and a bright future ahead of them.

And Venice was where it all went wrong

Two kids and twenty-five years later, they are struggling with money problems, but somehow Will manages to fulfil his promise to Libby to take her back to Venice for their anniversary. This time, they are doing it in style, and a masked ball awaits. But among the beautiful buildings and romantic canals, Libby learns that her husband has a secret that breaks her heart.

The trust is broken and the marriage is over. But there are decades of love and two grown sons between them.

Can they ever find their way back to each other, or have they missed their chance forever?

A funny and heartwarming second-chance romance, perfect for fans of Milly Johnson and Julie Caplin.
