Summary:
‘If ever a few was ‘meant to become,’ it’s Tess and Gus. That is such a witty, poignant, and uplifting story of two lives crisscrossing over the years, with near miss after near miss . . I couldn’t place it down.’-Sophie Kinsella
A wryly romantic debut novel with echoes of 1 Time that asks, what if you just walked by the love of your life, but didn’t even understand it?
‘TODAY IS THE FIRST DAY OF THE REST YOU WILL EVER HAVE.’ Tess can’t get the motto from her mother’s kitchen knickknack out of her mind, about Miss You: A Book even though she’s in Florence on an idyllic holiday before starting college or university in London.
Gus can be going to Florence, on a holiday along with his parents seven months after tragedy shattered their lives. Headed to medical college in London, he’s trying to be a dutiful child but longs to escape and discover who he is really.
A chance meeting brings these eighteen-year-olds together for a short moment-the first of many times their pathways will crisscross as time passes and their lives diverge from those they’d envisioned. Over the course of the next sixteen years, Tess and Gus will encounter very different challenges and choices. Separated by length and circumstance, the chance of these two connecting once more seems slight.
But while destiny can separate two people, additionally, it may bring them back again together again. . . .
