Ten Years On

Alice Peterson

Rebecca is happily married and content with her job in a London art gallery. But when tragedy strikes and her life comes crashing down around her, she flees to her childhood home in the country, hoping time will help her heal.

Born in the same country town, Joe had a falling out with Rebecca and hasn’t seen or spoke to her in a decade. Now he’s the successful owner of a wine bar, and is breaking local hearts.

Rebecca finds living with her parents again a challenge. Nor is it easy to discover that Joe lives and works too close for comfort. When she sees him again, bittersweet memories rush back to haunt her, along with unanswered questions.

Will she ever be able to forgive, forget and move on?
