Summary
ONE UNFORGETTABLE LOVE. TWO CONTINENTS. TWELVE YEARS.
EVEN THE UNBREAKABLE CAN BREAK. BUT SOMETIMES, WE'RE STRONGEST IN OUR BROKEN PLACES.
At twenty-five, American medical student Tessa Williams appears to have her future figured out. She's following in her father's footsteps, completing a clinical rotation in Botswana, and building the life everyone expects of her. But beneath the surface, she's unraveling. Haunted by an abusive relationship and burdened by expectations, Tessa is increasingly unsure of what she wants for herself.
Then a weekend escape to a remote safari lodge changes everything.
There, she meets Corey Diallo, a South African guide carrying grief and heartbreak of his own. Their connection is immediate, unexpected, and impossible to forget.
What begins as a chance encounter becomes a sweeping love story spanning twelve years and two continents. As their lives unfold, Tessa and Corey must confront painful truths, navigate unimaginable loss, and discover that sometimes the greatest journeys lead us back to ourselves.
Set against the breathtaking landscapes of Botswana and South Africa, Things That Break Us is an emotionally powerful novel about love, loss, resilience, and the beautiful, heartbreaking circle of life.
Because sometimes, it takes being far from home to finally find your way back to yourself.
Perfect for listeners who love the emotional storytelling of Kristin Hannah and Colleen Hoover, with richly drawn characters, complicated relationships, and unforgettable settings.
Experience the story in a multi-voice, AI-narrated audiobook edition, featuring distinct character voices that bring Tessa, Corey, and their extraordinary journey to life.
