Anna Sandoval, widowed for a little more than a year after
her husband Paul was suddenly taken from her, has decided
to spend the summer in Crete. She's struggling to define
who she is besides Paul's wife and is going through many
stages of self-discovery. Anna starts to draw again and
begins taking lessons from a local artist. This is where
her discovery starts to really take shape.
Anna's time is not only spent resuming her art, but love as
well. She is being pursued by not only one, but two men.
And after having had a picture-perfect marriage with Paul,
the decision is not easy. Who will she choose?
Ms. Keller's A SUMMER ALL HER OWN is a story of self-
discovery and rediscovery. This is a great book to pack in
your bag for your next vacation. The descriptions of Crete
are so vivid you can almost feel the heat of the sun as it
reflects off of the beautiful Aegean Sea. This is a
beautiful romance with a perfect ending.
A debut novel that takes readers to a sun-drenched Greek
island, where a young widow makes discoveries that
transform her life.
The roles of celebrity wife and mother satisfied Anna
Sandoval completely-until her husband, a famed
international journalist, suffered a fatal heart attack.
Now, a year later, still young and with her children grown,
Anna seeks an interlude from grief and a fresh start on the
timeless isle of Crete. In a small Greek community of
ancient hills soaked in sun and surrounded by sea, Anna
adapts to a slower pace and simpler lifestyle. Gradually,
she rediscovers a passion for drawing and becomes protégé
to a local artist and his sage wife, whose combined
insights help Anna transform life into art-and take charge
of her destiny. But when two very different men invite her
into their lives, she must decide not just what kind of
love she wants, but whether love itself is worth risking
everything she's gained.
