About this listen

An escapist summer novel from Sunday Times bestseller Jenny Colgan. Fall in love with a new cast of characters and get swept away in a breath-taking romance you'll want to listen to again and again . . .

'A glorious, breathtaking, tender romance. I loved every moment of the ride' SOPHIE KINSELLA

'[A] blast of feelgood fiction [...] it makes me want to head for the Highlands' THE TIMES
___________________________________

Born into a family of successful pilots, Morag is used to flying high. But when a tragic accident above the clouds grounds her, could the future she'd always imagined be suddenly out of reach?

When she receives a call telling her that her beloved grandfather has been taken ill, Morag leaves her fast-paced life in London to return home to the tranquil Scottish Highlands. With her grandfather out of action, Morag has no choice but to take over flying the local route in his rickety old plane, ferrying locals across the beautiful islands of the archipelago.

But as the weather takes a dramatic turn, Morag is forced to crash-land on a remote island and suddenly finds herself far from civilisation and all alone. Then she discovers Gregor, the gruff and reclusive ornithologist taking care of the island for the season. Though the pair don't see eye to eye, Morag is forced to seek shelter at his cabin and it seems the pair are stuck together until help arrives. However long that may be . . .

As she awaits rescue, might Morag discover that a remote Scottish island, cut off from real-life, is exactly the place she needs to be?

I enjoyed this story from Jenny, I always look forward to publication day. This story was a bit different. It was slow to build, had a more gentle flavour, but Jenny still gave us characters with nuance and bite. Not forgetting the chickens, goat, and grumpy ornithologist all amongst the land and skies of beautiful North East Scotland.
Lovely narrative as always from Eilidh.

Just when you think you know what path you’re on - another presents itself. Captivating story.

A good enough easy read although at one point the reader/character was so unnecessarily whingey (IMHO) on arrival on the island that I almost decided to give up on the book. I’m glad I persevered as it improved. For this reason I give it 4/5
