My search for a villa where Second Destiny story could have been played out… A couple of years after I’d finished writing Second Destiny and it was published I researched online for a visual of a villa to share with my readers my vision of where I imagined my characters (the artist divorcee, Lia and the gorgeous Dev, her first and only love) to fall back in love with each other.
