‘A gorgeous story of what-ifs and maybes . . . This is the love story you will remember from 2022’ Miranda Dickinson
What if you’ve already crossed paths with the love of your life?
Perfect for fans of One Day in December and Notting Hill, this is an unforgettable love story about sliding doors and chance encounters by the Richard & Judy Book Club bestselling author.
__________________________________________
Cora and Jacob live in London’s vast metropolis; he at one end of the Central Line, she at the other.
Their paths have crossed a thousand times without them knowing.
When a chance encounter on the underground brings them together, it seems they’re destined to fall in love.
But although they live in the same city, their worlds are miles apart.
Jacob’s life is uncluttered, while Cora’s is full of complications. And as events begin to divide them, they start to wonder:
Are they meant to be together, or were they never meant to meet?
