If Ever I Fall: An absolutely gripping, emotional page-turner

by S.D. Robertson Narrated by Emma Gregory

Overview

A heart-rending story of family tragedy, perfect for fans of Amanda Prowse and Jojo Moyes.

Is holding on harder than letting go?

Dan's life has fallen apart at the seams. He's lost his house, his job, and now he's going to lose his family too. All he's ever wanted is to keep them together, but is everything beyond repair?

Maria is drowning in grief. She spends her days writing letters that will never be answered. Nights are spent trying to hold terrible memories at bay, to escape the pain that threatens to engulf her.

Jack wakes up confused and alone. He doesn't know who he is, how he got there, or why he finds himself on a deserted clifftop, but will piecing together the past leave him a broken man?

In the face of real tragedy, can these three people find a way to reconcile their past with a new future? And is love enough to carry them through?

S.D. Robertson's contemporary fiction style paints a vivid picture of rural life, where the characters are coming to terms with their past in a small town. The story is a magical blend of realism and romance, making it a best pick for fans of the genre.

For fans of Ali Mercer (A Child's Goodbye), Hannah Beckerman (The Forgetting), Melissa Wiesner (It All Comes Back to You), Leah Mercer (A Secret in the Family), and Caroline Finnerty (The Last Goodbye).
