Description
A story about love, loss, hope, second chances, and above all, the power of reading...
A REASON TO LIVE.
Still grieving the death of her best friend, Erin knows she needs to start living - but has no idea how. Then she loses her favourite book, a heavily annotated and containing her friends final words to her.
A REASON TO LOVE.
When James finds Erins note-filled book in his local community library, it sparks a life-changing conversation. He writes his own message back, and soon they are locked in an anonymous book exchange, with no idea who the other person in the margins might be.
A REASON TO FORGIVE?
But Erin and James have a shared history that neither of them realise. How will Erin react when she discovers the other writer isnt a stranger at all - but the person she once swore shed never forgive?
A story of second chances and new beginnings, this is a love letter to books - and a love letter to love.
