Description
Una Lowe lives a perfectly edited life in London. Other than her best friend, she's careful about who she lets in. Emotional complications are just that - complicated. That is, until she rescues a rare white swallow... who might have just flown in to change her life.
Because, when her beloved swallow fails to return from migration one year, Una's world crumbles. But a viral social media campaign brings a miraculous response from a man in Bavaria named Konrad, who claims the bird has also visited him. Which leads him to invite Una to his picturesque village for the chance to see their shared feathered friend together.
Stepping out of her comfort zone, Una flies to Germany. Amidst snow-dusted streets, local festivals, and Konrad's undeniable charm, Una's protective walls begin to fall down.
But when the complication she's avoided her whole life comes for her, she's forced to confront her deepest fears. As autumn turns to winter, and inspired by the tiny, brave bird that brought them together, Una must decide if she is finally ready to risk her heart.
Is the only way to know if you can fly to face a possibility of falling...?
