MEET ME IN THE OLIVE GROVE

MØDET I OLIVENLUNDEN – MEET ME IN THE OLIVE GROVE

By Johanne Bille

SOLVEIG WORKS IN her mother’s café in Ahornstræde, where everyday life is safe and predictable. At home in her apartment, her painting supplies are tucked away, but in the evening and at night she takes them out—and feels a euphoria about creating that she hardly dares to take seriously. Her grandfather, a world-famous and tormented painter, has left her with more uncertainty than support.

WHEN SOLVEIG IS unexpectedly offered a place at an artists’ retreat in Mallorca, she seizes the opportunity. Surrounded by lemon trees and the song of cicadas, she tries to find her way with her art. But the brushes won’t do what she wants, and the canvas remains blank.

RAFEL, A LOCAL chef with a contagious passion for his craft, crosses her path again and again. But as her feelings grow, she discovers that Rafael is carrying a secret that casts a shadow over the love that is blossoming between them. And at the same time, inspiration begins to knock. Does Solveig dare to fully enter the world of art that caused division in her family?

MEET ME IN THE OLIVE GROVE is the fifth volume in the romantic Bookshop Blue Dream series. The books in the series can be read independently of each other.
