Three friends, two bike rides and one last chance for love. Dive into the most heartwarming and funny romantic comedy of 2022!

When Simon reconnects on Facebook with first love Sylvie - the French pen pal he never actually met all those decades ago - he is determined that things will be different. Together with old school friend, Ian, he sets off on a bike ride from Bristol to Bordeaux, the

same route they covered as teenagers in pursuit of love. But although Simon and Ian have better bikes, more acceptable haircuts, and Google Maps, some things never change. And the road to true love is as bumpy as those country lanes.

Is it ever too late to fulfil your dreams? And will Simon finally meet Sylvie?

Reviews for The Way Back To You

The Way Back To You had the ability to make me feel all warm and fuzzy but at the same time I literally couldn't put it down. I enjoyed the sense of intrigue around missed connections and impending weddings and the characters were complex and beautifully written. Please could we have a sequel so that I can find out where they all are in five years' time?!
