About this listen

‘Tender, funny and romantic’ Marie Claire

She has just two weeks. Two weeks to teach him how to fall in love – with his own life.

Adam Basil and Christine Rose are thrown together late one night, when Christine is crossing the Ha'penny Bridge in Dublin. Adam is there, poised, threatening to jump.

Adam is desperate – but Christine makes a crazy deal with him. His 35th birthday is looming and she bets him that before then she can show him life is worth living .

Despite her determination, Christine knows what a dangerous promise she's made. Against the ticking of the clock, the two of them embark on wild escapades, grand romantic gestures and some unlikely late-night outings. Slowly, Christine thinks Adam is starting to fall back in love with his life. But is that all that's happening… ?

A novel to make you laugh, cry and appreciate life, this is Cecelia Ahern at her thoughtful and surprising best.

I found the book slow starting and it took me a few day of repeating the first chapter to get into it. Then I couldn’t stop listening. It was heart warming and worrying at the same time. It made me feel a mixture of emotions. The reader really did make the story come alive.

Read beautifully this is a multi-layered story about love, loss and friendship that also manages to show how to deal with suicide and how to listen well. I was really engrossed right to the end even if the romance itself stretched credibility given it's almost direct Cinderella undertones.

Enjoyed every minute!
