About

A warm, funny, painfully relatable debut novel about friendship, coming of age in your thirties and finding your purpose. For fans of Anna Hope, Nina Stibbe and Holly Bourne.


'Heart-warming, funny and so relatable. This book made me want to cling to my life-long friendships – and listen to Fleetwood Mac.' Laura Dockrill, author of I Love You, I Love You, I Love You



Sam and Daisy have been best friends since university. Back then Daisy was a wild, Fleetwood Mac-obsessed girl descended from the Yorkshire Moors, while Sam's youth was misspent traipsing around Liverpool on shopping trips and nights out.

But as they lean against each other on a wooden bench in the tired garden of their beloved local pub, gazing out at Sam's wedding, they have no idea that their paths are about to truly diverge for the first time.

As Sam's desire to become a mother consumes her, and Daisy's inability to resist temptation haunts her, these best of friends will lose sight of themselves – and each other. With each misstep and unintentional betrayal the gulf widens. But can they build a bridge, or will they let it burn?
