What to expect

2024’s most unforgettable romance that will give you ALL the feels! From the queen of the 'what if' love story

‘It's the sort of story which makes you want to say, I love you, to everyone you care about the most in your life,’ Reader review ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Dan is Emma’s person. She’s known it since the first time she saw him dressed in lederhosen on the tube.

On their fifteen year ‘dateversary’, Emma texts a list of everything she should have told Dan that morning.

Tell the kids to remember their homework…
And their gloves.
Can you defrost some sausages?

Emma just forgets to write the most important words of all – I love you – and by the end of the day everything changes.

Or does it? Emma is given the chance to rewrite their future – if she can just figure out their past…

Escape with the most uplifting and emotional love story of the year. Perfect for fans of The Man Who Didn’t Call and Jojo Moyes!

Unfortunately another book we couldn't finish. The story idea was very good but we got irritated by the amount of rapid to and fro of emails and text messaging reading the sender's names and id on every message. Probably supposed to add realism to an online chat but it's too tiresome for me.
