Sara Tempest never expected to meet a man like Bernard.

Charming and captivating, over the course of one hot summer he and Sara fall desperately in love.

Without a second's thought, Sara moves into his beautiful home on the wind-battered cliffs of Hastings, ready for her new life to begin.

But soon she begins to wonder if Bernard is all he seems . . .

He's barely in touch with his children. Stifling reminders of his late wife appear everywhere Sara looks.

And then comes Bernard's confession.

All too quickly, Sara's newfound happiness starts to crumble around her . . .
