Description

Look out for Jojo’s new book, Paris for One and Other Storiesavailable now.

From the New York Times bestselling author of Me Before You and One Plus One, in an earlier work available in the U.S. for the first time, a surprising and moving romance set in an old-fashioned seaside town on the verge of unwelcome change


Liza McCullen will never fully escape her past. But the unspoiled beaches and tight-knit community of Silver Bay offer the freedom and safety she craves—if not for herself, then for her young daughter, Hannah. That is, until Mike Dormer arrives as a guest in her aunt’s hotel.
The mild-mannered Englishman with his too-smart clothes and distracting eyes could destroy everything Liza has worked so hard to protect: not only the family business and the bay that harbors her beloved whales, but also her conviction that she will never love—never deserve to love—again.

For his part, Mike Dormer is expecting just another business deal—an easy job kick-starting a resort in a small seaside town ripe for development. But he finds that he doesn’t quite know what to make of the eccentric inhabitants of the ramshackle Silver Bay Hotel, especially not enigmatic Liza McCullen, and their claim to the surrounding waters. As the development begins to take on a momentum of its own, Mike’s and Liza’s worlds collide in this hugely affecting and irresistible tale full of Jojo Moyes’s signature humor and generosity.

    This book is incredibly heart warming and comical. However, it also takes you on a mental trip to a place called “Silver Bay”. I loved the way that this book had a little bit of everything… heart wrenching mystery, upbeat comedy, and beautiful deep love. This book exceeds any expectation of “chick lit” because it truly hits the heart strings on a deeper level. You’ll fall in love with the characters, like all of Moyes other books. I HIGHLY recommend!!

    Beautiful! I loved every word of this, I could truly feel and smell the characters, the whales and dolphins and even the sharks; the air, the bay, and the beach. Unbelievable attention to details and the character. Thank you for transporting me far, far away, JoJo.

    I don't who thought this book had a bad start because it sucked me in from the get go...as did all the other 6 books I've read from Jojo Moyes. Her characters are like family and each book has brought me to laughter and tears...impossible to put down. Bring me more!

    I have read three of Jojo's books that I really liked, but after restarting this book twice and still not able to get into it, I gave up on it.
