You can run to the sun, but can you ever hide? From the bestselling
author of Villa of Sun and Secrets.Monte Carlo means different
things to different people; for some it's a billionaires
playground, overflowing with glitz and glamour but for others it's
where dangerous secrets lay hidden. For Nanette Weston, and her
then fiance, F1 racing driver Zac Ewart, their dream life came to
an abrupt halt 3 years ago following a car accident which Zac
walked away from, but left Nanette being airlifted back to the UK,
never to return and never to see her fiance again. Monte Carlo was
a place she wanted to forget, not revisit. But when her friend and
employer, Vanessa asks Nanette to look after her children in the
Principality for a few months, Nanette knew she had no choice but
to return. As the F1 circus once again comes to town, with Zac in
pole position, mistakes of the past, leave legacies for the
future... This book was previously published as Follow Your Star by
Jennifer Bohnet. What readers are saying about One Summer in Monte
Carlo: 'As always with Jennifers books I was able to escape into a
completely different world, one we can only dream about.' 'I could
imagine myself as the main female character and could hardly put
down the book.' 'A superb fast-paced read with a real surprise and
absolutely loved the F1 glamour of Monaco - I really felt I was
there!' 'Such a roller coaster ride of people's lives. Tragic, sad,
happy tumultuous feelings of life in the fast lane.'
The first generation of Sunbeam Alpine was produced in 1953-54 and
was named after the prestigious Alpine Rally which ran through the
mountains of France and Italy. The name was resurrected in 1959 for
a new model, the principle subject of this book. It was launched in
July of that year on the French Riviera and remained in production
until 1968. The Alpine was used in racing and rallying in many
places including Britain, continental Europe, the United States and
Canada. In this book, author John Willshire looks at the history of
the Sunbeam Alpine, its development and production history, the
different variants produced and its use as a rally and race car as
well as advising those who want to own and operate their own Alpine
today. The first book dedicated to the history of the Sunbeam
Alpine alone for more than twenty years, this is the first book on
the subject with such a wide range of historic and modern
photographs.
