Story
When Jake tells Lyssa it's not working, she knows he's not talking about the toaster. Her immediate reaction is to sob into her pillow and wait for Jake to come to his senses. But slowly Lyssa begins to understand that's not an option. In a bid to escape, she embarks on a trekking holiday in Nepal. Lyssa needs to get away - it never occurred to her that she might fall in love.... When it's time to go home - back to reality and a very sheepish Jake - Lyssa is faced with the hardest choice of her life.

Motherhood is full of little highs: the smell of a newborn baby's head, the feeling of a small hand holding yours, the infectious sound of laughter, first words, first steps, the first day at school, endless tiny but significant hints of the person your child is to become. But motherhood is not without its lows either: tears and tantrums (your child's and your own), fears, self-doubt, sleepless nights, and that's not to mention the mum fails.

Summary
Brought to you by Penguin.
Escape this winter with the heart-warming and uplifting new novel from the number one best-selling author Giovanna Fletcher.
In the darkness, we all need a little light....
After Mike loses Pia, his partner of 17 years, their best friends Vicky and Zaza try to help pick up the pieces.
But though Pia's gone, she left a plan. A list of loving instructions to help Mike and her friends come to terms with their loss.
And they're each going to need it....
Just-engaged Zaza fears committing any further.
Exhausted mother and wife Vicky has lost sight of herself.
While Mike just feels all the colour has gone from his life.
When the list sends them trekking to Peru, where high mountains and sweltering rainforests push them to the brink, all they have to guide them is their faith in Pia and in themselves.
But will they learn that anything is possible when you're walking on sunshine?
Critic reviews

Friends you didn't know and now will never forget
Oh, my goodness... I have loved this book. I loved the characters from the get go. I walked every step of their adventure and felt their loss.
I have laughed, cried and spoken to them in their time of need... literally speaking to the car sound system (Audible on my commute). Getting out on the commute has been a 'can't wait to get going' part of my day.
I loved the different perspectives of each character, their thoughts on each situation they faced and I know if I had met Pia when she was here, I would have loved her too.

Light read and evokes reflection
The characters had me in tears in the end. The story of three friends facing many real life challenges meant this was relatable and interesting. The beginning was slow going and I wasn’t sure if it was the writing or narrators but after the characters were fully formed I couldn’t stop listening

very disappointing
I really wanted to like this, but after 2 hours of boring dialogue I gave up. There's far too much irrelevant detail, we don't need to know what make of trainers or handbag someone has. I didn't find any of the characters interesting, they were bland and self absorbed. I particularly found the 'mum' character incredibly grating.
Very grateful to Audible for accepting the return and giving me my credit back.

A beautiful story!
I was considering the story as depressing at first due to the emotional strains of the characters. As I kept listening each personality was challenged and through the bonding glue of friendship their true "packed away" self was rediscovered. Truely beautiful.
