A short synopsis: A man starting a b&b in a European castle brings his cousin over to help, but their shared past may be a motivation... meanwhile an English teacher with a past of her own teaches a prison writing class and feels connected to one of the prisoners.

My view: LOVED THIS!! It was totally unexpected. Three different points of view, two stories with a parallel, romance & mystery, and it all ties together in the end... but I'm not telling how... Even with all that going on, it was an extremely fast and easy read, and very enjoyable overall. In short, it was good quality literature that didn't hurt.
