**THE INSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER**
'A dream of a love story' ROSIE WALSH
'Charged with chemistry and rippling with atmosphere' HOLLY MILLER
'Full of laughter and yearning' HOLLY GRAMAZIO
Two best friends. Seven days in paradise. One last chance to fall in love, or fall apart...
Frankie and George have been best friends since they were eight. They've always clashed and come back together-it's what they do. Until now. On the eve of her wedding, Frankie doesn't know where they stand or even if George will show up as her best man.
As she loses hope, in walks George. For one glorious evening, Frankie's life is finally perfect. But it all comes crashing down when her fiance dumps her the next morning, leaving only a note behind.
Crushed and confused, Frankie only wants to wallow. But George has a different idea. He wants her to go on her honeymoon. With him. For one week, to the lush rainforests and misty beaches of Tofino.
Frankie agrees, seeing the trip for what it really is: one last chance to repair their friendship. Even if it means unearthing secrets and long buried feelings neither knows how to handle. Even if it means falling apart for good.
