Celebrated romance author Catherine Swift has topped the bestseller lists for decades, though her personal story hasn’t been quite so successful and her three failed marriages have left her relationship with her daughters strained . . . 

A messy family drama and a steamy little romance unfolds under the Mediterranean sun for the perfect summer escape in The Island Villa, a novel told from the perspective of a mother and her daughters that investigates the complex relationships between parent and child.

"Readers will be swept up by well-drawn characters, each with her own romantic predicament, in this deft fictional examination of fragile and frayed familial bonds.” -- Shelf Awareness
