Synopsis

Newly alone under the golden light of San Francisco, a second chance at happiness seems so close, yet so far away … but it’s not just her own happiness she’s after.

Leonie has left behind everything and everyone she loves for a fresh s tart across the ocean in California. Desperate to outrun the mess she’s made at home, she hopes the change of scenery can mend her broken heart and bury her secrets forever. But when she discovers a
bundle of unread love letters hidden in the back of a wardrobe in her new apartment, she’s immediately intrigued by the mystery behind them … and can’t help but notice the similarities between them and her own story.

With the help of her new friend Alex, a news reporter toting around romantic baggage of her own, Leonie embarks on a quest down the West Coast to find the ill-fated lovers from the letters and reunite them, whatever it takes. Even if it means confronting the hurt she’s buried
deep within herself. Because if the couple behind the love letters can find a happy ending, then perhaps she just might too.
