When Carolyn's grown daughter tells her she needs to "get a life,"
Carolyn decides it's time to step out of her familiar routine as a
single woman in San Francisco and escape to her mother's home in
the Canary Islands. Since Carolyn's mother is celebrating her
seventieth birthday, the timing of Carolyn's visit makes for a
perfect surprise.
The surprise, however, is on Carolyn when she sees Bryan
Spencer, her high school summer love. It's been seven years since
Carolyn lost her husband, but ever since that tragic day, her life
has grown smaller and closed in. The time has come for Carolyn to
get her heart back. It takes the gentle affection of her mother and
aunts, as well as the ministering beauty and song of the islands to
draw Carolyn into the fullness of life. She is nudged along by a
Flamenco dance lesson, a defining camel ride and the steady gaze of
Bryan's intense blue-gray eyes.
Is it too late for Carolyn to trust Bryan? Can Carolyn believe
that Bryan has turned into something more than the wild beach boy
who stole her kisses so many years ago on a balmy Canary night?
Carolyn is reminded that Christopher Columbus set sail from the
Canary Islands in 1492 on his voyage to discover the New World. Is
she ready to set sail from these same islands to discover her new
life?
