You, Again

From the global bestselling author of Iris is More than Okay comes a sweeping, Transatlantic, second chance romance that will steal your heart. Narrated by Bella Maclean, breakout star of Jilly Cooper's Rivals.

Holland Beck – yes, after the country, and no, the story isn’t a good one – hates flying. On the brink of boarding a flight from Heathrow to Los Angeles, she panics. She can’t do it. Travelling triggers all the trauma of her past, the childhood memories she’s done her very best to forget.

But thanks to cool, calm and collected Xander, Holland somehow manages to board the plane. Twelve hours and six thousand miles later, they touch down in LA and aren’t quite able to say goodbye. They make arrangements to meet at the end of Santa Monica Pier in three days time.

But while Holland turns up, Xander is nowhere to be seen.

A year passes – one ordinary, unremarkable year. Holland does her best to forget the American with the ice blue eyes and slightly crooked smile, but despite her best efforts, the memories remain clear in her mind, refusing to let go. Then one evening, at a friend’s wedding, their worlds collide once more, along with all the unanswered questions: Why wasn't he at the pier that day? What made him change his mind? And why does he carry a hidden sorrow that seems to reflect her own?

You, Again is an achingly tender map of the heart, showing us the roads not taken and the ones we did, and if there is ever a way to retrace our steps, to learn to love again.
