Synopsis:
THE SUNDAY TIMES NO. 1 BESTSELLER
A REESE WITHERSPOON BOOK CLUB PICK
A spellbinding story of love, community and the power of reading from the author of The Last Letter from Your Lover, now a major motion picture, and Me Before You, the worldwide bestseller
THE GREATEST LOVE STORY IS THE ONE YOU LEAST EXPECT . . .

But when her father-in-law and the town turn against them, Alice fears the freedom, friendship and the new love she's found will be lost . . .

'Her best book yet. It's a romance - but about female friends, the outdoors and the magic of reading' Grazia
