WINNER OF THE ROMANTIC NOVEL OF THE YEAR AWARD
‘With a storyline packed full of teenage nostalgia and old-fashioned romance, this is a must read.’ Woman magazine
At high-school, Petra and Arlo loved each other from afar without ever quite revealing how they felt. Then life got in the way - but they've never forgotten each other.Now, almost twenty years later, creative and dreamy Petra Flint lives in London. By day, she’s an accomplished jeweler, by night she's a sleepwalker, searching for answers.
Arlo Savidge left a rock‘n’roll lifestyle for a quiet life in beautiful North Yorkshire. These days he teaches music at a boys’ boarding school, but a buried memory haunts his sleep.
Now, in a tiny ice-cream shop in a quaint English village, Arlo and Petra meet again. But, for love to blossom, they must put their pasts to bed – a past Petra can’t quite remember, a past Arlo wants to forget.
A story of first love and second chances from the bestselling author of Little Wing and Where You Are.
