Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

From the moment Lily Harper arrives at a remote retreat on the breath-taking Scilly Isles, she is itching to get back to civilisation - and her business.

Slowing down simply isn't in her vocabulary, and so she quickly clashes with the gorgeous but dour Sam who runs the retreat.

Just as Lily is about to give up and leave, she is involved in a spectacular boating accident. Rumours abound and her obituary is released online.

But there are two problems:

One: Lily doesn't like the person she's reading about

Two: Lily isn't dead

Faced with her own mortality, Lily is no longer sure she wants to return to the life she thought she loved. But will she have the courage to give the retreat, and Sam, a second chance?

Brilliant

A lovely story set in the beautiful Scillies which is a area I have visited many times. I really enjoyed listening to this and was sorry when’s it ended. It would be lovely if a second book was written so
so we could know what happened next

Why make up an island to tell a story in the Isles of Scilly !

Read / bought this as I love the Isles of Scilly and am lucky to visit/ holiday there every year - but I really struggled with made up island Stark - I think it wasn’t necessary to make an island to story tell about this magical place and it really put me off engaging with the story and characters fully - sorry
