A Goodreads Most Anticipated Romance
A heartwarming novel about hope after loss as a young widow receives mysterious messages of love from the “must-buy author” (Jodi Picoult) of Eight Perfect Hours.
Sparkly and charming Natalie Fincher has it all—a handsome new husband, a fixer-upper cottage of her dreams, and the opportunity to tour with the musical she’s spent years writing. But when her husband suddenly dies, all her hopes and dreams instantly disappear.
Two and a half years later, Natalie is still lost. She works, sleeps (well, as much as the sexually frustrated village foxes will allow), and sees friends just often enough to allay their worries, but her life is empty. And she can only bring herself to play music at a London train station’s public piano where she can be anonymous. She’s lost motivation, faith in love, in happiness…in everything.
But when someone begins to mysteriously leave the sheet music for her husband’s favorite songs at the station’s piano, Natalie begins to feel a sense of hope and excitement for the first time. As she investigates just who could be doing this, Natalie finds herself on an unexpected journey toward newfound love for herself, for life, and maybe, for a special someone.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
A young widow discovers new love in this moving contemporary romance from Louis (Eight Perfect Hours). Songwriter Natalie Fincher stopped composing after the death of her husband, Russ, over two years before the start of the book. She's abandoned her craft and now barely makes an effort in her work at her parents' London shop. Her friends pressure her into chatting up a stranger, Tom, while out at a bar one night—and she's surprised to run into him again later at a train station where she occasionally still plays the communal piano. When Natalie discovers sheet music to Russ's favorite song in the piano bench, it feels like a sign, leaving her determined to track down whoever left it. This quest unexpectedly leads her back to Tom—and to the possibility of finding love again. But to make their relationship work, Natalie must navigate an emotional minefield of grief and guilt. The authenticity of Natalie's relationships buoys the dramatic story as her supportive friend group sticks by her through all the ups and downs. Fast-paced and intensely emotional, this tale of loss and love delivers the goods.
