The Temptation of Gracie by Santa Montefiore
5.0

Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

A beautiful read. The plot recalls the secretive past of the Gracie as she revisits a life and love long ago. 

I absolutely loved the characters  and felt that even with the back and forth of time periods as Gracie recalls the past and the couple POV storylines it didn’t feel disjointed and complimented eachother wonderfully. 

Something is certainly to be said for the twist ending which I can genuinely say I hadn’t expected and audibly gasped when reading. This is the kind of book you wish you could forget just to re-read and experience anew all over again.
