Summary

A story of mix-ups, mess-ups and making the most of second chances, this is a novel from international sensation Jojo Moyes, author of Me Before You and The Giver of Stars.

Who are you when you are forced to walk in someone else's shoes?

Meet Sam...

She's not got much, but she's grateful for what she has: a job she's just about clinging on to and a family who depend on her for everything. She knows she's one bad day away from losing it all - and just hopes today isn't it...

Meet Nisha...

She's got everything she always dreamed of - and more: a phenomenally rich husband; an international lifestyle; and...she's just been locked out of all of it after her husband initiates divorce proceedings...

Sam and Nisha should never have crossed paths. But after a bag mix-up at the gym, their lives become intertwined - even as they spiral out of control.

Each blames the other as they feel increasingly invisible, forgotten, lost - and desperately alone.

But they're not.

No woman is an island. Look around. Family. Friends. Strangers.

Even the woman you believe just ruined your life might turn out to be your best friend.

Because together you can do anything - like take back what is yours...

First audio book

As an avid book reader wasn’t sure I would take to an audible book - but I throughly enjoyed the story & narration. The characters were brought to life by Daisy Ridley, which made me feel involved in them & their evolving friendship. Another great Jojo Moyes read.

An audible book not to be missed. Great narration,

The narrator is excellent with an ability to adapt her voice to define each character. I thoroughly enjoyed the story, became connected to the personalities of the women and loved the twists and comeuppance at the end. Well done JoJo another enjoyable book.
