How can you know someone until you learn to talk about the past? Present: Letty and Alf are the only English speakers at an Italian class in Rome, where they discover the language that really connects them is dance. Alf is nineteen, a former ballroom champion who seems reassuringly confident and at ease with himself. Letty - twenty-two, and unusually reserved and studious - has been forced to give up her childhood dream of becoming a ballet dancer. They come from different worlds, but when they waltz around the Piazza Navona together, a passionate relationship begins. Past: can their decision to live in the moment keep their histories from encroaching? Why is Alf living in a shared apartment, estranged from his family, and what has wrenched Letty away from the apparent security of her university degree? Perhaps the secrets they have yet to share will tear them apart . . . Future: When the unthinkable happens, Letty returns to London and Alf to Blackpool. But will the events that first brought them together also allow them a future?

"I couldn't put it down" Sophie KinsellaSometimes it's the people you miss who matter most.Tess and Gus are meant to be. They just haven't met properly yet. And perhaps they never will...'Today is the first day of the rest of your life.' That's what the plate in Tess's mum's kitchen says. And for a while, it seems like it might be true: Tess has just finished her A levels and is holidaying in Florence before going on to university and then Great Things. But that's before tragedy strikes.For Gus, the tragedy has already happened. He and his parents have come to Florence to pretend they're a normal family, but they all know that's not true, and Gus can't wait to escape. The first time Tess and Gus meet, they don't speak. The second time, they exchange nine words. The third time, three sentences. Then they return to England and their separate worlds and that, as they say, is that. Or it would be -- except that the universe seems to have other ideas, even if neither Tess nor Gus realise it.

Sich zu finden war leicht. Sich festzuhalten fast unmöglich. Alles beginnt wie im Märchen: Tess und Gus verlieben sich im Italienurlaub Hals über Kopf ineinander. Sie möchten heiraten und könnten glücklich bis ans Ende ihrer Tage leben. Doch das wahre Leben ist kein Märchen. Zurück im verregneten London beginnt für die beiden eine Reise, die sich das Leben nennt. Kummer und Freude warten auf sie, ihre Verbindung wird vielfach auf die Probe gestellt. Gus durchleidet eine schwere Depression, Tess muss ihre ganze Energie für ihre autistische Schwester aufbringen. Über allem schwebt die ständige Unsicherheit, ob Tess ihre Krebserkrankung wirklich überwunden hat. Wird ihre Liebe stark genug sein, um die Herausforderungen ihres komplizierten Lebens gemeinsam zu meistern?
