Two people's lives are about to collide… but will they find love?
Far away, on a beautiful Mediterranean island, a little girl writes a letter to the Universe, with one wish - for something to change so that her father, Luke, can be happy again.
Little does she know, there are two strangers in search of Luke already. Bee, who has just found out a deep secret about her past. And Alex, who dreams of his mother finding some of her memories again, and who believes Luke might be the key.
As Bee's and Alex's lives are drawn together - in entirely unexpected ways - will they only find what they're looking for? Or could the Universe also have a love story planned for two people who might just be soulmates, if only their paths could cross…
'Oh boy! It's poignant, it's raw, it's blooming emotional. Tissues at the ready… We don't know what may be around the corner… A stunning read, one that took my breath away. Very highly recommended.' Reader Review ?????
'A massive WOW!… An emotional journey of heartbreak, grief and loss… A powerful, magical and quite simply beautiful read… You will lose your heart to this wonderfully touching and bittersweet tale.' Reader Review ?????
'Wow… this book. It's very rare that a book captivates me from the first few pages alone, but this one definitely did. This was so beautifully written and so well thought out. I flew through it. It's a raw story of friendship, love, grief, and so much more… Incredible.' Reader Review ?????
'A beautifully written tearjerker, and worth every single one of my tears! I'm not prone to getting sentimental, so that's saying a lot… It was sad and heartbreaking, but there was beauty… [It] reminds us of the power of love and what it can do… A five-star experience!' Reader Review ?????
'A book that made me cry so much… about soulmates and friendship. I loved it.' Reader Review ?????
