Matelda, la matriarca de la familia Cabrelli, siempre ha sido una mujer fuerte y decidida, pero es hasta ahora, al final de su vida, que está determinada a desentrañar la gran historia de amor de su madre, Domenica. Un secreto guardado durante añ el triángulo amoroso que involucra a Silvio, un amigo de la infancia, y al apuesto capitán escocés, John Lawrie McVicars, el padre que Matelda nunca conoció.
Mientras acompañamos a Domenica Cabrelli a experimentar el amor, la pérdida y el dolor de un exilio provocado por el estallido de la Segunda Guerra Mundial, atestiguaremos cómo las mujeres de su familia casi cien años después continúan enfrentándose a los mismos dilemas sobre la vida, la lealtad y la pasión. Esta maravillosa historia se extiende a lo largo de los años, transportándonos desde el mar azul de Viareggio y las costas rocosas de Marsella a la belleza mística de Escocia. Una novela cautivadora y emocionante que desborda sensualidad en cada página.
