About the Book

Charles Pendleton and Simone duPont seek, but don't always see. Simone seeks love; Charles seeks a way to feel settled and be satisfied. Neither can see that their love and security is right before them until it is taken away.

New things become visible in the dark moments of deception and greed-driven ambition; things that were once overlooked; things that were better left unseen. Out of the darkness, like a new sunrise, like a second chance to refocus, Pendleton and duPont change their perspectives and see, feel, believe, and experience things for what they are.

This inspirational, dramatic, adventurous love story blends elements of career, life, loss, and recovery, and shares a clear and insightful message through the eyes of a man, woman, their friends and their families and a year of life opportunities in France, Italy, England and North America.
