How far would you go for someone you loved? Would you do something unimaginable?
This unforgettable, slow-burn love story set in vibrant Barcelona makes you ask yourself what you would do if the very worst happened. How you would find your way back?
Beth has spent years writing about other people’s music. Now, after the sudden death of her estranged father, acclaimed guitarist Francisco Ortega, she is forced to confront the one thing that has always terrified her—performing it herself.
She inherits her father’s beautiful apartment in Barcelona, but there’s a catch. To keep it, Beth must play with a band before the end of the year. The problem? She’s tone deaf, and Dad was the only person who knew. As Beth battles a complicated family history and the ghosts she brought with her from London, she wonders if learning to play might mean more than saving her inheritance. It might mean finding the courage to become someone new.
Teo is a wax sculptor, daredevil and keeper of a devastating secret. He knows better than anyone that some things should stay buried. The last thing he needs is Beth, with her bruised heart and infuriating ability to see straight through him. How easily she slipped into his family and made herself at home.
As Beth learns to trust her voice, and Teo struggles to accept a future he never expected, the past catches up with them both. Inheritance means more than houses and money. We inherit the people who shaped us, the stories we were never told, and the wounds we carry without knowing why.
Sometimes, the family that saves us is the one we choose.
