About this listen

Gripping, moving and beautifully observed, this is a love story told from both sides, with warmth, tenderness and heart.

Whir, beep, click, breath. Whir, beep, click, breath.

Pippa Gallagher is rushed in to hospital following a traffic accident.

As Pippa lies unconscious, she is aware of fragments. The day she met Steve Gallagher, her best friend and the man who would become the love of her life. The heartbreak she felt tonight as she got into her car, her eyes blurry from tears.

Meanwhile Steve sits at her bedside, his eyes fixed on her pale, still face. He has no idea where his wife was going when she crashed. No clue as to why she became distracted behind the wheel. All he knows is that she is his world. And that he wasn't there when she needed him most.

For the next 12 hours, Steve tells Pippa all the reasons he loves her.

But is it too late? Can Pippa find her way back to him?

This book was exquisitely written, it made me laugh, it made me feel sad. It’s a story of two people who simply belong together. I didn’t love Pippa or Steve as characters, but I did absolutely buy in to their relationship, that they belonged. I give this book 5 stars because I really appreciated the good writing.

Beautifully written

Loved it from start to finish. Beautiful, funny, heartbreaking, and real. You feel for Steve and Pippa, and root for them.

Beautiful!

I think I have been spoilt by some absolutely superb storytelling in my previous listens, particularly the Book of Memory. I took the easy option with my monthly free book and went for the recommendation. It is nowhere near in the same league. I agree with some of these reviews and after a few hours in I realise it is meant for a teenage audience. I will probably stay with it to see if it gets any better but regret my miss- spent free listen.

I shouldn’t have given in to the audible recommendation

it is beautifully narrated and beautifully written.

A love story like no other

Good narrating and engaging story. Pity about the implausible/unrealistic medical aspects which tainted it slightly but most non-medical people wouldn’t notice the inaccuracies. Overall very enjoyable

Enjoyable

A pretty straightforward story, told in retrospective and current snippets. OK but not great. A little bland.
