Summary
A poignant and gently humorous love story from the Women’s Prize longlisted Luan Goldie, which explores all the messy and beautiful ways we can rebuild our lives, perfect for fans of Evenings and Weekends and Tia Williams

'[A] gorgeous exploration of romance … reminding us that even during life’s toughest moments, there’s laughter, too’ Red

‘A moving story of grief, hope and friendship’ Prima

*****

Zoe lost a part of herself after a heartbreaking loss and when she returns to work, everyone is tiptoeing around her and hoping she is back to her old self. But she knows she’ll never be the same carefree party girl she was before.

Then she meets Cian – her disarmingly charming colleague, who’s working from home after a climbing accident left him temporarily immobile. As they spend the summer hiding from the heatwave, arguing about Studio Ghibli, and sharing moments of vulnerability, their cautious friendship grows into something deeper. But with Cian grappling with his own restless spirit, and Zoe keeping everyone at arm’s length, there are a hundred reasons for them to hit the brakes.

Zoe has a choice to make – retreat into her shell and cling to the safety of what she knows, or risk it all and take a leap of faith into the unknown?

Between Yesterday and Tomorrow is a story of courage and connection, and examines the messy, beautiful ways we rebuild our lives when everything feels broken. It finds the humour in the darkest moments and reminds us of the ways we find hope.
