About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

On the last train home you expect to find standing space only, drunk people singing, the overpowering smell of McDonalds...

You never expect to find love.

When Abbie and Tom cross paths traveling home after a night out, their eyes meet across a crowded carriage and their connection is unmistakable.

What they don't know is that moments later they will both be caught up in an event that will change them forever.

It's one that will bring them together. But it will also tear them apart.

A lot can happen in seven seconds. A lot can happen in seven years.

Can they find their way back to each other?


Gorgeously romantic and swoon-worthy, this is the next unputdownable, will-they-won't-they love story from Elle Cook.

Fantastic listen, absolutely loved it. A story through the years of a true love that never seems to find each other at the right times. Wonderfully read by the narrators and unpredictable storyline. Will make you laugh and cry! Recommend this author, have enjoyed other books too.

I blinked and l was on Chapter 38. Yes, it’s that intoxicating.
Follow Tom and Abbie through their lives of missed opportunities. Both making heartbreaking decisions that will leave you screaming ‘No’, in your head.
I loved every word.

Brilliant, just blooming brilliant.

First audio book to make me cry! I know a book is good when I choose to listen to it after work rather than watch the TV. Really loved it, would make a great series. Wasn't as predicted as some other 'will they, won't they stories'.

I saw this book recommended in a magazine book review and hadn't read any of Elle Cook's previous novels. I enjoyed the story and the descriptions of London. I thought Tom and Abbie were very likeable as the two main characters. My only criticism would be that I found the ending a little rushed but overall a great book and I will definitely read her other stories now.
