A HILARIOUSLY RELATABLE DEBUT NOVEL ABOUT FINDING YOUR VOICE, FROM BELOVED SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER FEARNE COTTON

Jade Shaw has lost control.

Stuck in the middle of her chaotic family and taken for granted by her self-obsessed boyfriend, Adam, she's forgotten how to speak for herself.

The last place she expects to find answers is on the floor outside her flat. But there it is: a mysterious, untitled script, predicting an infuriating row with Adam.

Later, as if by magic, the scene becomes reality: word for word, line for line, with Adam getting his own way. Then, more scripts appear - scraps of paper predicting scenarios in which Jade's boss, mum, and bridezilla sister call all the shots.
Having been given a sneak peek at her future, Jade knows she needs to rewrite her destiny.

Can she create her own happy ever after?

I loved this story! Such an original idea around an issue a lot of people struggle with. Characters written so well the reader/listener can really emphasise with Jade and the storyline makes you want to keep reading!

What a well woven tale that has left me wanting to her more about how the characters continue to grow and develop.
Erin Dougherty narrating was truly excellent - I would say on par with my favourite narrator Stephen fry in the Harry Potter series.
Thank you Fearne - more please !

Very enjoyable story

I’ve followed Fearne Cotton on Instagram and podcast for many years now and I was intrigued to give this a try, having enjoyed her “self help” books too, especially Bigger Than Us. This story contains a LOT of Fearne! It’s joyful, beautiful, curious, mysterious, and sad too, and the performance is perfect - the characters are brought to life wonderfully. I want a sequel to hear about Jade’s continued story! Thanks Fearne, I learned a lot about myself too reading this book, really enjoyed it.

Brilliant audiobook!
