A BRAND NEW beautiful, uplifting story from the NUMBER ONE bestselling author of The Last List of Mabel Beaumont and The Life She Could Have Lived.'Laura Pearson is a phenomenal storyteller... She writes the kind of stories you can feel with your whole being.' Reader review ¿¿¿¿¿What if somebody's story could be told another way?
The day Emmie Sharpe died, the country was in shock. She was the 'girl next door', the least showy famous person ever, and she wasn't even forty. Everyone was devastated.
But the year before Emmie Sharpe died, she lost everything she loved.
And the year before that, Emmie relapsed into the habits that could kill her.
But before that, somewhere along the line, before the unravelling... Emmie found love, Emmie found fame, Emmie found ways of making her dreams come true.
So where did it change for the nation's sweetheart? And if her story could go another way, where would her path need to split?
Told backwards, and then forwards, this is a story about love, family, and how to stay yourself even while you fight your demons. From the No.1 bestselling author of The Last List of Mabel Beaumont.
