Synopsis

‘If you cried at Jojo Moyes’ “Me Before You”, get your hankies ready.’ Booklist

Two single parents, Frankie and Scott, meet unexpectedly. Their homes are far apart: Frankie lives with her children on the North Norfolk coast, Scott in the mountains of British Columbia. Yet though thousands of miles divide them, a million little things connect them. A spark ignites, a recognition so strong that it dares them to take a risk.

For two families, life is about to change. But no-one could have anticipated how.

‘[An] outstanding contemporary love story eschews a traditional happily-ever-after ending, but is no less romantic for that... readers will immediately be reminded of the great loves in their own lives...

From the Back Cover:

Everyone deserves a new beginning. But sometimes fate isn't on your side...

Over one short weekend, when musician Scott and children's author Frankie meet by chance, a profound connection is made. Their homes are thousands of miles apart: Frankie and her children live by the coast of North Norfolk while Scott's roots lie deep in the mountains of British Columbia. Against all advice, they decide to see where this might go.

Over oceans and time zones, they make sacrifices and take risks, discovering along the way new truths about love and family. For the first time in a long while, it seems life could be very good. But fate has a twist in store, one that could destroy all that was hoped for
