She loved him for 500 years.

By: Leanne Owens

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Four famous Australians rush from around the world to help their childhood friend, Ally. They owe her their lives, but they betrayed her in the past and she disappeared for decades. Now that they’ve found her, they will do anything to keep her alive, even listen to her stories of Zo, the man she loved all her life… Lorenzo de’ Medici, a man who lived five hundred years ago. Sometimes, being a friend means you believe the impossible. Sometimes, the impossible happens. Peter, Sandy, Lyn, and Andrew recall growing up in Geelong, Australia, in the 1960s and 1970s, and how their friend Ally lifted them up into amazing lives. As fifty-nine-year olds, they are coming back to save her and learn the secrets that drove her beyond sanity. A novel about the power of friendship and love, of resilience, and the darkness that can lie behind the brightest of lives. Whether you are ten in the 1960s, turning sixty in the 21st Century, or living in Renaissance Florence, there are few powers as great as love itself. An uplifting and empowering novel.
