A completely heartbreaking novel from the Sunday Times bestselling author of The Life You Left Behind

''When the world says “give up”, hope whispers, “try it one more time”.’

Callie’s always been the least ambitious of her sisters but also the happiest, until fate snaps her fiancé away before they can say I do.

One year later, she is still putting her life back together, but she might be ready for more. With so much life left to live, she has to find a way to be happy.

Nathan knows not everyone gets a second chance at life and he’s not going to waste his. He’s left the city behind, moved to Cornwall and is starting over. When he meets a beautiful woman at the beach it feels like fate, but her heart belongs to someone else.

Could Callie and Nathan be just what each other needs?

An emotional, yet uplifting, read about the power of hope, strength, and finding beauty in life and love. Perfect for fans of Jill Mansell, Lucy Diamond and Jojo Moyes.
