Between salt, sun and bougainvillea lies the Meridian house on the coast of Mallorca — and for Livia it was only meant to be one summer, spent putting a struggling hotel back on course. But between the numbers, the staffing questions and the oppressive heat stands Bernat, who knows the house like no one else and thwarts Livia's plans with quiet stubbornness. The longer the summer lasts, the more the line blurs between work and whatever is growing between them. A sun-drenched novel about new beginnings, old wounds and the question of where we truly belong. Meridian – Book 5.
