The Diary and the Green Dress

It's the exquisite, vintage, mint green dress that first captures Izzy's imagination. But it's what's underneath the dress, laying at the bottom of the dusty trunk, that grabs and continues to intrigue her-fifteen leather-bound diaries.

Starting in 1919, the entries tell the story of Grace, a woman whose life was destined to know both the tenderest of love and overwhelming, heartbreaking grief. The more Izzy reads, the more she wants to know about Grace's life. But soon she finds herself untangling a story of her own. Who is Claudia and what will her arrival mean for Izzy's family?

Throw in the purchase of the first house she's ever owned, as well as a new man in her life, a relationship she hadn't been looking for and, isn't sure she's ready for, and Izzy begins to feel overwhelmed. At least she has the diaries she can lose herself in when her own life becomes too complicated. But the more she reads, the more she realises there are similarities between her life and Grace's life.
