THE UNFORGETTABLE NEW NOVEL FROM THE AUTHOR OF SATURDAYS AT NOON

Noah and Kate were meant to be together forever.

Married with two gorgeous sons, it looked like they'd got their happy ever after.

But marriage isn't easy. And one day, Kate left, taking their two boys with her.

These days, Noah is a weekend dad - and it breaks his heart. He misses the chaotic meal-times, the bedtime stories, the early mornings and the late homework.

Suddenly, he decides enough is enough - he has to win his family back. Starting with Kate.

The only problem?

In six weeks' time, Kate is getting married to someone else...

Until Next Weekend is a total delight. Beautifully observed, painfully funny and profoundly moving, it’s a wise and wonderful story of hope and love. I adored it!

A delightful, heart-warming read – a reminder that we all get a second act in life. The characters feel so real… I’m sure I must know them somehow!

Within a few pages I was totally invested in Noah and his relationships. I laughed with him, cried for him and cheered him every step of the way. Rachel Marks packs a novel with all the emotions – hope, fear, love, despair and – ultimately – joy
