The Final Goodbye: Her Story

Recently divorced, Samantha is looking forward to being single again and her long-anticipated summer vacation. Little did she know how one slow dance on a Saturday night with a handsome foreign stranger would change her life forever. She speaks English, he speaks Italian, but somehow the language barrier disappears as they embark on a whirlwind summer romance that grows into a passion neither had experienced before. But his home is in Italy along with his daughter, and her life is in Connecticut. How can they possibly make it work when they can't stand to be apart? Her life becomes an emotional roller coaster as they seek out ways to keep the fire burning...until one day he goes silent. Sam is devastated but convinced there are circumstances beyond his control that one day will be explained. She clings to the gold necklace and charm he had designed for her in Italy, keeping it close to her heart. She defends him to friends and family because she knows that his love for her is real, his words were real, and she is certain he will come back to her to rekindle the embers that are still flickering in her heart.
