Two people with so much love bottle up inside discover a way to share something in themselves no-one has ever seen, but is it too late for either of them.
This is a haunting tale that stayed with me after finishing the story. The author has created a story that at first I didn’t know where it was going. The story was told through emails between two strangers who meet by accident when an email is sent to the wrong person on an email list.
The two protagonists, Marcello who lives in Italy, and Catherine residing in Seattle, Washington, USA meet through an email that Marcello mistakenly sends to her in which he pours his heart out to his supposedly wife who just asked for a divorce. The emails go back and forth until the emails become more serious in nature and the couple plan to meet in Italy during a conference that Catherine is attending for her work.
I don’t want to give anything away other than to say that this is a romantic, haunting tale of love that will grip you and not let you go until the surprise ending. I highly recommend this lovely book!
This book was full of typos and poor grammar. The story was certainly nothing that kept me wanting to read and having to reread several times because of errors only made it worse. What a stupid ending, where the mistakes were even more prevalent. I'm new to Kindle unlimited, hoping that not all of the free books are like this one. For the monthly fee you should at least get books that have been thoroughly proofread. This one certainly was not.
