You, Me & The Sea
Description
'Immersive and affecting I absolutely loved it! Escaping to the island setting was utter bliss. The love story is beautiful... It is escapism in the best possible way.' - Marian Keyes
Compelling, moving and teeming with feral desire: contemporary story of love and redemption set on a remote, windswept Scottish island from the bestselling author of Into the Darkest Corner and The Murder of Harriet Monckton.
Rachel is at crisis point. A series of disastrous decisions has left her with no job, no home, and no faith in herself. But an unexpected job offer takes her to a remote Scottish island, and it feels like a chance to recover and mend her battered self-esteem.
The island's other inhabitants are less than welcoming. Fraser Sutherland is a taciturn loner who is not happy about sharing his lighthouse or his precious coffee beans and Lefty, his unofficial assistant, is a scrawny, scared lad who isn't supposed to be there at all.
Homesick and out of her depth, Rachel wonders whether she's made another mistake. But, as spring turns to summer, the wild beauty of the island captivates her soul. For the first time in years she sees the hope of a better life if only she can break the deadlock between two men who are at war with one another, and with themselves.
'An absolute gem. It's up there with David Nicholls' One Day as an all-time favourite love story now. I can't recommend this wonderful book highly enough.' - Cass Green
