About this listen

A page-turning, heart-warming romance, guaranteed to brighten up your day from the award-winning top 50 bestseller, Maxine Morrey

Perfect for fans of Lauren Weisberger and Sophie Kinsella.

Milly has been waiting for this moment forever and finally it’s just an hour away – an interview with Vogue magazine and the opportunity to get her foot in the door. There’s just one problem – totally engrossed in her mobile phone, Milly doesn’t see the bus that is fast approaching – until it’s too late…

When Milly next opens her eyes, the consequences of her accident become clear. Everything she has worked for and dreamed of suddenly feels out of reach. But there is one bright spot on her horizon – the reappearance of her ex Jed, in all of his six-foot-four, broad-shouldered glory, with the most piercing ice blue eyes Milly ever saw.

Once used to working in a whirlwind, Milly now has the chance to reconsider how to live. Will she rush back to the treadmill, get her head down and back to business, or is there a whole other life waiting for her, if she’ll just look up to see it?

Critic Reviews

"An uplifting read that stops you in your tracks and makes you wonder '...but what if?' Absorbing, funny and oh-so-romantic, I loved every page!" (Rachel Burton)

The story made for good listening although I did find Jed’s accent/voice somewhat hard to take and not believable.

A light story. Bit predictable. Bland characters. He's a perfect and popular billionaire. She's a driven career woman with no friends... But all that time focusing on her career didn't do much for her because she was dropped in no time when the accident happened. Didn't quite ring true. Moral message was repeated frequently - people spend too much time staring at screens.

Ok
