When Kendra first visits her ailing grandmother, Ella has only one request: that Kendra write her story down, before she forgets... In 1937, seventeen-year-old Ella's life changes forever when she is sent to spend the summer on the beautiful �le de R� and meets the charismatic, creative Christophe. They spend the summer together, exploring the island's sandy beaches and crystal-clear waters, and, for the first time in her life, Ella feels truly free. But the outbreak of war casts everything in a new light. Ella is forced to return to Scotland, where she volunteers for the war effort alongside the dashing Angus. In this new world, Ella feels herself drifting further and further from who she was on the �le de R�. Can she ever find her way back? And does she want to? From the windswept �le de R� to the rugged hills of Scotland, Sea of Memories is a spellbinding journey about the power of memory, love and second chances.

First time reading a book by this author and I have to say I really enjoyed it!
It was beautifully written and I loved the descriptive writing especially when it came to describing the different scenes, especially the Île de Ré. It made you feel like you were actually there!
I loved reading Ella's story although it really tugged at the heartstrings at times!
I'm glad that writing her grandmother's story allowed Kendra to understand her better and bought her closer to her.
I will definitely be looking to read Fiona's other books after enjoying this one so much!
