IT'S TIME TO FINISH WHAT THEY STARTED . . .

Laura used to have big dreams, but she gave them up - because that's what grown-ups do. Trying to turn her love of music into a career would have been absolutely ridiculous.

But when she hears one of Tadhg's songs on the radio, she isn't so sure.

Tadhg and Laura used to be in a band together. They used to be a lot of things. Now he's a superstar, touring the world with his songs, reminding Laura of what might have been.

Then she gets an email that could change everything: Tadhg wants to finish a song they started writing together sixteen years ago. Making music again would literally be a dream come true, even if it's with a person she swore she'd never speak to again. And they can keep things professional, right?

As Tadhg and Laura start working together though, sparks begin to fly. Maybe music isn't the only thing that deserves a second chance . . .

'Tender-hearted and full of yearning . . . Laura and Tadhg stay with you long after the final beautiful notes of their story' Sophie White
