Heartbroken following the death of her partner, Susan Parks knows she needs to find a new life, so she leaves her life in England and moves to Cannes. There Susan encounters the enigmatic Gustave. He seems intrigued by Susan, and begins a determined campaign to win her over.
His attentions are flattering, and unexpected, but Susan’s emotions are too raw. As they get to know one another, however, Susan learns more about Gustave’s story—his ambitious plans for the stunning château he owns, his own tragic loss.
Susan can’t run from her growing feelings, but nor can she forget the heartache that brought her to France. She has a choice to make: to hide in bittersweet memories of the past or to take a chance on love.
