The Heartbreak of Joan

Description

Joan spent a year learning how to become someone new.

Nothing prepared her for becoming a widow.

The phone call comes without warning. The marriage she spent so long trying to save—and then trying to escape—is simply over. What Joan inherits isn’t just a quiet farmhouse and an empty life, but the sudden, terrifying space to figure out who she actually is.

She becomes Jade.

Armed with a passport, a new work assignment, and no one left to answer to, Jade steps into a world far beyond the walls of her past. From sun-drenched Mediterranean cruises to the sleek marble lobbies of Malta, old friendships are rekindled, and a captivating man named Spiros forces her to question what she truly desires.

But true freedom is rarely simple.

The Heartbreak of Joan is a compelling, evocative story of what happens after the transformation—when grief, forbidden passion, and ultimate independence collide, and one woman must decide which version of herself she intends to keep.
