About this listen

The most unforgettable story of the year. A novel about mothers and daughters, love, and loss, perfect for fans of Lucy Diamond, Beth Moran, and Amanda Prowse.

‘I want to tell you a story, my beautiful child, of every magical thing I wish for you, my beautiful child. This is where it all begins…’

It all begins when Edie’s daughter Lexie was born. A day when hope gleams like sunlight on mirror-flat water. Lexie’s arrival makes Edie feel like her life is complete, and her love for her newborn daughter is immediate, like a force of nature.

Even though Edie’s marriage to Ryan isn’t perfect, Edie knows she can hold their family together, for Lexie and her brother.

However, life – in all its beautiful, messy glory – doesn’t always follow the script. And by the time Lexie is a teenager, everything’s changed, and she’s moving as far away from her family as she possibly can.

But now Edie needs her back home, where it all began. Because – as everything in Edie’s life changes – she realises her daughter Lexie might be the only person who can save her…

The most unforgettable story of the year!
