“If you cried at Jojo Moyes’ Me Before You, get your hankies ready.” –Booklist (starred review)

“Rich, romantic, beautifully drawn and utterly compelling” Jane Green, New York Times bestselling author

Life is short. Sometimes you have to take a chance...

Two single parents, Scott and Frankie, meet by chance.

Their homes are thousands of miles apart: Frankie lives somewhat chaotically with her children on the shoreline of North Norfolk, while Scott’s life is in the mountains of British Columbia. Distance divides them – but it seems that a million little things connect them. A spark ignites, one so strong that it dares them to take a risk.

But fate has one more trick in store...

There are some truths about life and family we only learn when we grow up. There are some we never thought we’d have to.

Review:

“Beautifully drawn and utterly compelling” Jane Green

“[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... [and] will find it impossible to put down their five-hanky story until the last page is turned.” Publishers Weekly (Starred)

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

“A stunning read about an impromptu meeting that alters two destinies” Daily Record

“Gorgeously eloquent and touching...a celebration of the wonderful glory of love and life” Lovereading.co.uk

“A moving and poignant novel about long-distance love...will draw you in so deeply” Heat

“From the initial spark and through the unfolding drama, it is joyous but understated. And the great cruelties that life harbours are not forgotten, either” The Lady

“Keep the tissues close...a gripping love story” Good Housekeeping

“Thoughtful and moving” Closer

“An emotional tale about finding love in unexpected places” The Herald

“Get your tissues out for this one” Woman and Home

“A richly drawn, romantic weepy” Sunday Mirror
