“An intimate look at the stages of grief and how true love is never really lost. I cried. I laughed. I had a wicked craving for Italian pastry.” ~ Lisa Roe, author of Big & Lily

“A beautiful, soul-stirring journey about love and loss and resiliency.” ~ Heidi Shertok, author of Match Me If You Can

A young widow searches for meaning in the mysterious clues her late husband left behind, which contains a shocking final directive. 

Leah Wright is fine. Just ask her. Except as owner of the PepTalk podcast—which offers live positive advice—she goes off on a caller and is forced to take a leave of absence to get her act together or risk losing her sponsors. 

With time on her hands, she goes through her late husband’s belongings and finds an itinerary for a surprise trip to Florence he planned before his unexpected death. Her sister-in-law, Megan, encourages her to take the trip to fix her life and begin to mend her broken heart. 

Leah goes, feeling closer to Elliot with each clue on a scavenger hunt he’s left behind. When she reads the last directive, she can’t breathe. How did it get there and when? Can she finish the hunt? But most of all, can she forgive herself for the guilt she feels over his death and find a way to live again?
