About this audiobook
#1 New York Times bestselling author Rosamunde Pilcher invites you inside The Empty House, where a woman’s tragedies define her life, secluding her from the endless possibilities her future has to offer…
At twenty-seven, Virginia Keile had been through the most intense experiences life had to offer—a magical first love ending in heartbreak, a suitable marriage, motherhood, and widowhood. All she wanted now was to take her daughter and son to a seaside cottage in Cornwall and help them recover. But Virginia’s true love was there, waiting, hoping, praying that this time she would be strong enough to seize happiness.
Rosamunde Pilcher
