Map of the Heart

#1 New York Times Bestselling Author returns with a compelling story of love and family from the present day to World War II France

An accomplished photographer, widow, and mother, Camille Palmer is content with the blessings she’s enjoyed. When her ageing father asks her to go with him to his native France, she has no idea that she’s embarking on an adventure that will utterly transform her.

While Provence offers answers about her family’s past, Camille meets a handsome American historian who stirs a passion deep within her, and who may hold the key to her future…
