When Magnolia Jones finds her daughter’s travel journal, she can think of no better way to honour her life than setting off on the gap year trip that twenty-three-year-old Bronte had dreamed of taking. It was meant to be Bronte’s adventure, but perhaps following her daughter’s footsteps around the world is exactly what Magnolia needs to piece her broken heart back together and begin to heal. As her travels take her further away from home, memories of a long-ago summer come flooding back. Magnolia barely recognises that girl she used to be – the dreams she had, the freedom ahead, the midnight kisses on the beach with curly-haired, brown-eyed Jackson. Maybe, just maybe, in this magical place that is somewhere only they know, Magnolia is about to discover that her journey isn’t over – it’s just about to begin.
