Book description
Haunted by a past she can't escape, Laura Cunningham desires nothing
more than to keep her world small and precise - her quiet relationship
and growing jewellery business are all she needs to get by. Until the
December day when Rob Blake walks into her studio and commissions a
necklace that will tell his enigmatic wife Cat's life in charms. As
Laura interviews Cat's family, friends and former lovers, she steps out
of her world and into theirs - a charmed world where weekends are spent
in Verbier and the air is lavender-scented, where friends are wild,
extravagant and jealous, and a big love has to compete with grand
passions. Hearts are opened, secrets revealed and as the necklace begins
to fill up, Cat's intoxicating life envelops Laura's own. By the time
she has to identify the final charm, Laura's metamorphosis is almost
complete. But the last story left to tell has the power to change all of
their lives forever, and Laura is forced to choose between who she
really is and who it is she wants to be.
