Book description
Peter Haskell, president of a major pharmaceutical company, has
everything: power, position, and a family which mean everything to
him. Olivia Thatcher is the wife of a famous senator. She has given to
her husband's ambitions and career until her soul is bone-dry. She is
trapped in a web of duty and obligation, married to a man she once
loved and no longer even knows; when her son died, a piece of Olivia
died too.
On the night of a bomb threat, Olivia and Peter meet accidentally in
Paris. Their lives converge for one magical moment in the Place
Vendôme, and in a café in Montmartre their hearts are laid bare.
Peter, once so sure of his marriage and success, is faced with his
professional career in jeopardy - Olivia, no longer sure of anything,
knows that she cannot go on any more. When Olivia disappears, only
Peter suspects that it may not be foul play, and he has to find her
again. But where will they go from there? Five days in Paris is all
they have.
Home again, they must both pursue their lives, despite challenges,
compromise and betrayal. Everything they believe is put on the line,
until they both realise that they must face life's challenges head-on.
