Description
Set in the French Alps, a story of two lovers. Steve, a man who has lost his love and endeavours to find her again in France, and Simone, a woman whom people consider has had too many lovers. Steve seeks to find the real Simone and eventually discovers her, despite many upsets which revolve in the mountains.
Chamonix and the Alps are paramount to the story, as is Provence.
A story is full of exciting climaxes which will appeal to men and women who are a bit different – we seek them out!

Robin P, Reviewer
The author clearly knows the French Alps well and provides a scenic backdrop of outstanding beauty.
I loved the central characters, Steve Carson and Simone Carrier, and the complexities of a chance meeting turning into something very special.
I also loved the breathtaking scenes on Mount Blanc as Steve and his rival, Pascal, battled to reach new heights. The two Alpinists competing for more than the summit of a mountain.
Chamonix is brought to life as an enticing location and then Provence, where Simone's dark secret is revealed in the person of Monique, another beautifully drawn character.
The ending came too soon, with a totally unexpected denouement.
