Go Gentle

From the author of the unforgettable Where'd You Go, Bernadette comes a spirited, polished, good-time read: Go Gentle. This is the story of Adora Hazard, a divorced, single mother and Stoic who teaches philosophy to an eccentric couple's twin boys, who hail from an old, storied family. Adora lives by the creed: the secret to happiness is wanting only what you have. She is a simple, cheerful, and hardworking woman who enjoys her teenage daughter and helps her lady friends snap up the neighboring apartments in her building so they can support each other into old age. All is going well, and she is very content with her life until she meets a mysterious stranger at the ballet, and it's love at first sight. Little does she know she is about to be at the epicenter of an art heist of international intrigue. This book has it all. It's a romance, covers mid-life awakenings, includes a mother-daughter story, so much philosophy, and twists and turns that I guarantee will have you recommending this book to everyone you pass on the street.
