Adrienne Carter leaves Chicago after a bitter divorce to Florida, a place she's always wanted to live. There she regroups and discovers her strength while rekindling her faith in love.

After purchasing a Victorian home desperately in need of renovation, she finds and reads WWII era love letters that she discovered hidden in the rafters. She sets out to find the author or recipient of the letters in hopes of meeting the man she comes to know from his heartfelt words of love. She does meet him and that meeting changes the course of her life and the lives of others.

Anyone who enjoys romance will like this book.

The characters in the story have real problems and real solutions that can't be resolved simply with the turn of a page. In some cases, it takes decades to right a wrong. The love letters in the story are touching and give the reader a glimpse into the mind of a man who is willing to show strength through weakness. His definition of a gentleman as "a man who protects a lady's heart" will stick with me as I continue my journey through life.

The story drew me in from the first paragraph and I didn't put the book down until I finished.
