Summary
Perfect for fans of Me Before You and One Day, this heart-breaking story of love, loss and life will have you questioning everything you thought you knew about destiny . . .
Where do you see yourself in five years?
Type-A Manhattan lawyer Dannie Kohan has been in possession of her meticulously crafted answer since she understood the question. On the day that she nails the most important job interview of her career and gets engaged to the perfect man, she's well on her way to fulfilling her life goals.
That night Dannie falls asleep only to wake up in a different apartment with a different ring on her finger, and in the company of a very different man. The TV is on in the background, and she can just make out the date. It's the same night - December 15th - but 2025, five years in the future.
It was just a dream, she tells herself when she wakes, but it felt so real . . . Determined to ignore the odd experience, she files it away in the back of her mind.
That is, until four and a half years later, when Dannie turns down a street and there, standing on the corner, is the man from her dream . . .
In Five Years is a love story, brimming with joy and heartbreak. But it is definitely not the love story you're expecting.

Struggled to Finish!
The story just didn't grab me and so I didn't feel invested in the characters.

better in print version
This is a beautiful story but I could not get along with the audible version due to American accent. I switched to kindle and found that I could not put it down until I had finished it. Beautiful story of friendship and loss.

Unexpected
Slow to start; seemed predictable until it wasn't. A different kind of love story. Appreciated.

Beautiful moving story
Loved everything about this book. Beautifully written. Really could imagine and envisage the characters especially Dani and Bella. Narrator was one of the best I’ve heard and I listen to about 4/6 books a month whilst out walking. Definitely need to check out more books by this author. Ok

Beautiful and not in a way expected
It’s so easy to become totally invested in the characters, the way the plot develops from the opening chapters makes you anticipate the ending only for it to be spun in a heartbreakingly beautiful and unexpected way. Will be telling everyone I know to read it
