In a Word... Inimitable

This is my second Santa Montefiore novel. I must say that like, The French Gardner, Sea of Lost Love is absolutely wonderful. The plot is explosive -- continuously catching you off guard with interesting twists and turns. The characters are portrayed so clearly and with keen realism. There is great closure with the protagonists -- especially the ending! In all honesty, I was sorry when I finished the book. At the same time, I have to say also that there is one small flaw. I don't want to give anything away, so, I'll just say that the falling in love parts occurred too quickly and too often. Otherwise, I thoroughly enjoyed it -- so much so, I'm getting ready to purchase another one of her books, The Perfect Happiness.

Good story

I enjoyed the story and the writing, although not as much as The French Gardener.

Amazing Novel

Sea of Lost Love is an amazing book. I randomly shuffled through an 'end of the year sale' bin at a local book store and was pleasantly surprised. The author describes everything in so perfect of detail it doesn't seem like you're there, you really are. I absolutely loved how she described Italy. Also, her characters are the most developed I've seen and are so complex on many levels. Santa Montefiore is an amazing writer and I am definitely going to read her other works in the future. I recommend this book to anyone who is looking for a mystery along with romance.
