Summary

From the author of We Just Clicked and The Man I Didn’t Marry comes a brand-new romantic and moving love story daring to find a second chance in life and love.

It’s never too late to follow your heart.

One summer’s day seventeen years ago Edie and Joel meet. Their connection is instant and a friendship is born, although Edie can’t help but wish for more. But just as she builds up the courage to lay her heart on the line, one night changes everything…

Edie’s moved on from the heartbreak of years ago. So the last thing she expects to receive on her thirty-fifth birthday is an email… from her eighteen-year-old self. As more emails arrive, she starts to remember what–or rather who–she left behind.

Following her own advice, Edie heads back to the place where it all began, and finds her path unexpectedly crossing with Joel’s once more. Could this finally be their chance at love? Or are some things better left in the past?

Critic reviews

"Tender and insightful on regret and second chances, it's the perfect combination of poignancy and charm. A warm hug in book form, and a gorgeous summer read." (Holly Miller, The Sight of You)

"I absolutely adored Note to Self. A brilliant, fun concept, characters that will steal your heart and a love story to make you swoon. It should be on everyone’s summer reading list!" (Emily Stone, Always in December)

"A triumph of humour and heart! I'm such a sucker for nostalgia and romance combined, and Note to Self took me on the most perfect roller coaster of emotion." (Laura Jane Williams, Our Stop)

A heartwarming and well narrated story

A really enjoyable story about second chances. The chapters moved smoothly between past and present and the narration was spot on which is really important to keep the listener engaged. The story unfolded well, without being too predictable and it kept me wanting more. Nothing too taxing, just a happy easy listener which brought tears of sadness and joy throughout.
