He promised to help reclaim her memories.

Until she remembered another man.

Cornwall, 1913

For three years, Merryn has lived without a past. When she faces being locked away for her own "protection," she takes a daring chance on a hasty marriage to AJ Winthrop-a kind, whimsical new acquaintance who offers a chance to recover the truth. Along the windswept Cornish coast, fragments begin to return:

Another man.

Another wedding.

Then a hidden painting reveals her own face, and its secrets threaten the fragile love she's found-and the future she longs for.

Cornwall, 1947

Haunted by the war and estranged from the wife he still loves, William Crawford is determined to save her family home-even if it means selling the mysterious portrait of Merryn Dunn hidden in his cottage. But Merryn's secrets could upend everything-or offer a redemption he never expected.

A sweeping dual-timeline tale of identity, memory, and enduring love_, perfect for readers of Mimi Matthews, Susanna Kearsley, and Kate Morton._
