The BRAND NEW gorgeous, sun-drenched read from bestselling author Kate Frost! Perfect for fans of Emma Burstall, Jo Thomas and Karen Swan ??Escape to a beautiful Italian island this summer... ???When the beginning of the end is just the start...?
Newly single Lola Wild has had her fill of well-intentioned matchmaking friends. Her best friend Mirabel's hen weekend highlights all that's wrong with Lola's life, and she knows something has to change.
With Mirabel's luxurious wedding in Sardinia fast approaching, Lola is looking forward to switching off, spending time with her friends and keeping her non-existent love life off everyone's agenda.
Meanwhile, fellow wedding guest Rhys Strickland has his own problems. So when a chance encounter brings Rhys and Lola together they decide to help each other out.
With the idyllic backdrop of white sand beaches and azure bays, they bond over shared heartache, and friendship blossoms as they attempt to navigate the hurt and hard truths of past relationships.
Opening up their hearts and embracing change might be the last thing they expected, but what if a holiday of make-believe can turn into something real?
A heart-warming and uplifting story of vulnerability, self-renewal and finding love when you least expect to.
