Rosamunde Pilcher: Erdbeeren im Frühling

The story

Young journalist Lilly Parker is shocked when she learns at the reading of her recently deceased father's will that she is not his biological daughter. As a result, she is only tolerated by her stepmother Nora and takes care of the heartbroken readers of the local magazine Country Lady. Lilly herself has no problems in love, at least since she has been in a relationship with the much older Eric. Then Lilly finds a letter written 50 years ago by the American Grace and helps her to find the love of her life, David. In the process, Lilly also meets Grace's grandson Nicholas and falls in love with the charming stranger.
