Imagine you meet a man, spend seven glorious days together, and fall in love. And it’s mutual: you’ve never been so certain of anything.

So when he leaves for a long-booked holiday and promises to call from the airport, you have no cause to doubt him.

But he doesn’t call.

Your friends tell you to forget him, but you know they're wrong: something must have happened; there must be a reason for his silence.

What do you do when you finally discover you're right? That there is a reason – and that reason is the one thing you didn't share with each other?

The truth.

The author formerly known as Lucy Robinson has come up with another fabulous story, after an absence of a few years. 

I was hooked throughout and even when the narrative made me think of one possible reason why Eddie never called after 1 perfect week, I was still completely surprised for the real reason, and subsequent plot turns. 

I felt I was by Sarah's side in her frustration at not knowing why after a great week and a soul mate found, that Eddie wasn't in touch.   I loved all of her friends suggestions for what she should do, and laughed at some of the situations she found herself in. 

It is a very cleverly written book, and touches on some deep issues in addition the main storyline of why a man doesn't call!

My only complaint is that I had to wait far too long for this book to be released. Can we have the next one a bit sooner please Rosie?!!

Thank you to Netgalley and Mantle for this copy which I have reviewed honestly and voluntarily.
