Only ever look back to see how far you’ve come; those were the words her social worker, Connie, had impressed on the orphaned Lili her whole life. But was it time to revisit her past…?
After breaking up with her partner, Lili is facing an uncertain future. A chance encounter with a curmudgeonly old gentleman who runs an antique store on the Suffolk Coast is about to change the course of Lili’s life. He offers Lili the flat above his shop at a peppercorn rent. But unbeknown to Lili, she reminds him of someone from his past.
Lili isn’t the only new arrival on the windswept Suffolk Coast. Nate is starting over with his young son, returning to stay with his grandfather, Joseph, in his imposing home called The Summerhouse. A blossoming friendship soon develops between Nate and Lili that takes them both by surprise.
Things take an unexpected turn when Lili discovers Joseph hasa Hebrew wedding band, one of a matching pair – the other one Lili has had since childhood. It was her only possession, hanging on a chain around her neck when she was found as a small child wandering alone on a beach in Corfu.
Lili sets out on a journey to Corfu to discover the truth about her past, and starts to unravel a mystery that spans three generations – a mystery that leads her back to Joseph and the secret of the summerhouse.
This is the second book in The Sunrise Coast Series. Although it can be read as a standalone novel, it is best enjoyed following on from Book one: New Beginnings at the Harbour Inn.

About the author

Elise Darcy grew up in North London in the 1970's, the daughter of two baby boomer school teachers. Her love of books began at an early age when weekend trips to Regent's Park always culminated in a visit to Foyles, the legendary independent bookstore in the Charing Cross Road, her parents' regular haunt. She has fond memories of exploring a veritable Aladdin’s cave; a magical place with winding staircases, old creaking lifts, and cosy corners in which to settle down and lose herself in a good book.
After reading economics at university, Elise embarked on a graduate training programme leading to a career as a business analyst. She worked in this capacity for a number of years until the economic downturn swept her up in its tsunami and deposited her in the redundancy wasteland. On the upside, it was an opportunity to start over and follow a dream.
Elise subsequently moved out of London to a small market town in Suffolk, bought an apartment, and settled down with her family, a laptop, and the neighbourhood moggies who take every opportunity to sneak into the apartment unnoticed and find all manner of hiding places while she is busy writing her novels.
Elise enjoys writing from the perspective of both her female and male characters. She believes there’s always two sides to every story. This is born out in her four-book series, 'Living Apart Together', which follows the continuing story of Sylvie and John as they navigate their new life post-retirement. With lots of plot twists and turns, this series leads the reader on an interesting, funny, at times hysterical, and often poignant journey into the lives, loves, hopes and dreams of two ordinary sixty-year-olds coping with life’s ups and downs in retirement. Along the way they make some surprising discoveries about themselves and each other. The question is will they stay together or split up for good?
Elise Darcy loves writing romantic suspense. Her stories revolve around family secrets, second chances, and the courage to follow your dreams – wherever they might lead. She is currently writing The Sunrise Coast series set in one of her favourite parts of the world – the East Coast of England.

Olivia has always believed that both her parents tragically died together in an accident. It is only on the passing of her beloved grandmother that photographs, journals and a bundle of letters lead her to question her own upbringing and challenge everything she believed in. Taking her on a journey that spans the globe Olivia rediscovers herself and her family.
I enjoyed this book. It had a great story line and likeable characters. Perfect for a cosy evening.
