About this listen

Before You Say Goodbye by Sarah Gate has been recognised as the second-place winner in the Romance category of Feathered Quill’s 2025 Book Awards!

Autumn has found the love of her life.

Now she has to say goodbye.

When lonely author Autumn meets shy musician Bowie in New York, they fall head over heels and into their forever.

But not everyone gets their happily ever after.

Bowie has just six months left to live. And just like that, Autumn’s entire life has been rewritten.

Embraced by his loving, unconventional family, Autumn returns with Bowie to England to live out the rest of his life by his side. But over the course of that summer, the decisions Autumn makes will help her move on, even after love and loss.

Decisions, it emerges, that were orchestrated by Bowie before they said goodbye.

A sweeping tale of Autumn’s involvement with the love of her life and his large, dramatic and incredibly loving family.
Autumn is a writer who moves to New York, partly to escape her unhappy past. She meets Bluebell in a coffee shop and they become close immediately. Then one night Bluebell takes her to her brother Marley’s gig. There she meets his twin, Bowie who becomes the love of her life. She is absorbed into his family and her life is changed forever.
I did enjoy this although at times, I thought I couldn’t continue. No spoilers from me. Very harrowing in places.

Family drama
