Synopsis
Two lovers reunite after war and start a new life, but the past keeps tugging at their hearts. This tender fiction follows Jiminy and Benjamin Benvenuto as they return to civilian life, choose to marry, and chase a future painted with hope, poetry, and everyday courage.
Set against a bustling New York that gives way to quiet shorelines, the story moves from crowded streets to intimate moments of resolve. It blends warmth, humor, and longing as the couple balances dreams of a shared life with the pull of family history and unspoken questions about what comes next after war.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book follows the lives of Jennie Raftery and Benjamin Benvenuto as they fall in love and embark on a romantic honeymoon filled with artistic inspiration and literary longing. Marrying just after Benjamin's return from serving in World War I, they find themselves drawn into an idyllic existence of poetry and painting within a charming mountainside bungalow, courtesy of an absent bookseller named Daniel Arimondo. Juxtaposed against their new, vibrant love, Benjamin and Jennie are haunted by an incomplete poetic work: a series of love sonnets penned by the Renaissance artist Raphael. Overcome with the desire to see the sonnets brought to light, they embark on a quest to track down the complete collection, endearing themselves to readers with their relatable longing to share artistic fulfillment with the world at large. In their journey to find the lost sonnets, the author explores the nature of love, the power of imagination, and the unique ability of art to connect us to something larger than ourselves. This book uses a comprehensive story to reveal the journey of two lovers as they seek to uncover the truth behind a lost masterpiece. The book contains themes of love, art, and literature and can be situated within a broader literary context of post-World War I literature.
