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