Would you live your life by the roll of the dice? This is exactly
what Jacob Green does, by letting the dice decide where he should
go next. He's been handing his life over to destiny for nearly five
years now and has no intention of stopping. Oliva Jackson wants to
control everything. Living life as one big to-do list, her whole
world is a series of predetermined steps to success. But after her
sister tragically dies Olivia throws caution to the wind and goes
travelling (albeit with a meticulously organised itinerary). What
she doesn't plan for, however, is meeting Jacob. At first, he is
infuriating. Then, to her surprise, she finds herself wishing that
the only plan she cares about is when they'll meet again. But
unfortunately for Olivia, the only plan Jacob is willing to make is
to throw the dice and let destiny decide. As they part ways to go
on their separate journeys, two questions remain...will they ever
meet again? And, when it comes to love...should matters of the
heart really be left to fate?

"A charming page-turner" (Laura Jane Williams, author of Our Stop)
for fans of Close Enough to Touch and Me Before You about two
patients who fall in love as they recover from traumatic injuries
in the same hospital ward...all without seeing each other. Alice
Gunnersley and Alfie Mack sleep just a few feet apart from one
another. They talk for hours every day. And they've never seen each
other face-to-face. After being in devastating accidents, the two
now share the same ward as long-term residents of St. Francis's
Hospital. Although they don't get off to the best start, the close
quarters (and Alfie's persistence to befriend everyone he meets)
brings them closer together. Pretty soon no one can make Alice
laugh as hard as Alfie does, and Alfie feels like he's finally
found a true confidante in Alice. Between their late night talks
and inside jokes, something more than friendship begins to slowly
blossom between them. But as their conditions improve and the end
of their stay draws closer, Alfie and Alice are forced to decide
whether it's worth continuing a relationship with someone who's
seen all of the worst parts of you, but never seen your actual
face. "Equally humorous and tender, this tale of triumph over
adversity is a moving celebration of the bravery it takes to show
oneself to another" (Publishers Weekly).

ago. CAN THEY STILL KEEP THEIR WORD? It takes tragic circumstances
