En savoir plus sur le livre

Kate Mackenzie is on the verge of artistic success when she meets Gabriel Erskine, who is twenty-two years her senior. Initially uninterested in a relationship, she finds herself drawn to Gabriel's unique perspective on art and life. Six months later, she moves into Allansfield, his picturesque estate in Fife, hoping to deepen their connection. Meanwhile, Henrietta Winthrop arrives in St Andrews, unaware of Gabriel's proximity. Years ago, she made a choice that profoundly impacted both their lives, a decision she has often regretted. When she learns that Kate lives with Gabriel, she is taken aback but accepts an invitation to Allansfield. The sight of Gabriel and Kate together in a home that could have belonged to her stirs complex emotions. At Allansfield, the arrival of Gabriel's son Hugh and his child highlights the age gap between Kate and Gabriel, while the comforts of wealth fail to inspire her creativity. As Kate uncovers Gabriel's past lies, she questions whether she can truly be part of his life and whether that is what she truly desires. This touching and honest narrative explores life's choices, the multifaceted nature of love, and the possibility of second chances.
