Time For Tuscany – A Novel by Susie Sharp

You can’t change the past… but you can choose your tomorrow.


A Story of Love, Loss & Starting Over in Midlife

Five years after the heartbreak of losing her young son, Sara Mortimer knows her marriage is hanging by a thread. In a last attempt to save it, she suggests a summer in Tuscany, hoping the rolling hills and golden light might bring her husband back.

But as Marcus drifts further away, Sara begins to wonder if she’s fighting for her marriage – or for herself.

Then she meets Eddie Hunt, a rugged ex-traffic cop carrying grief that mirrors her own. With him, she glimpses the woman she could be, if she’s brave enough to take the chance.

And when a long-buried secret comes to light, Sara must decide where her heart truly belongs. 

Because if she doesn’t choose herself now, she may regret it forever…

A poignant, heartfelt story of love, loss, and the quiet courage it takes to begin again. Perfect for fans of Jojo Moyes and Kerry Fisher.
