About this listen

 Can love draw them together . . . again?

After a traumatic accident, a young couple tries to find their way back to each other - and themselves - in this tender, slow-burn romance by the bestselling author of Ready or Not and Promise Me Sunshine.
____________________________

Roz and Vin can't look each other in the eyes anymore, let alone share a bed. It's been a year since they survived a traumatic car accident and their marriage hasn't been the same.

But Roz has held out hope that they can fix things . . . until she discovers that Vin has signed a new lease.

So she does what any soon-to-be-divorced Manhattanite would do: she signs up for figure drawing class.

Ignoring Vin's impending move-out date would be a lot easier if he wasn't her best-friends brother - and if he hadn't just offered to let her draw him. After all, that's known to make a separation easier, right? Focus on every detail of your estranged spouse's body while drawing them in the nude?

But after the year they've spent avoiding each other, it feels good to see and be seen by one another again. As Roz works to capture the wholeness of the person she fell in love with, will they both be able to draw upon the feelings they buried deep inside to finally heal together?

Cara Bastone has done it again. Trauma, desolation, pain, hope, joy, love... a rollercoaster ride of life beautifully expressed in this snapshot of a couple's biggest struggle yet. A story of dedication towards family and loved ones, to healing and caring. An ode to piecing yourself back together when everything within and without seems to want to crumble you. And all beautifully performed by the audio narrator.

Absolutely worth the wait. Cara Bastone knows how to dig deep emotionally. Exposing raw feelings & human emotions, through the pain, all the way to the healing in the guise of wonderfully formed characters. Cara writes the story & Alex Fink brings it bubbling to life, with her masterfully excellent narration. I loved this book. Loved the characters & didn't want it to end. Heartily recommend this story if you're looking for an upliftingly honest tale, that instills hope & will make you smile....long after you've read the last line......🩷🌸🩷

I absolutely loved Promise Me Sunshine and to my shame, wasn’t sure if this would live up to that book but it 100% did. The writing was funny, the story poignant, I was kept fully engaged and the narration was amazing. Would defo recommend.
