ONE STORY. TWO EXES. CAN THEY CHANGE THEIR ENDING?

Temi and Wale meet in London. They flirt, date, meet each other's friends.
Then they break up. And Wale goes on a reality dating show.

Instead of giving in to heartbreak, Temi throws herself into her dream: writing. She's within touching distance of a book deal that would solve all her problems. But publishers keep passing on her novel and bills still have to be paid. So, when the opportunity to ghost-write a celebrity autobiography arises, Temi accepts.

And, of course, the celebrity turns out to be Wale...

Will Temi and Wale repeat the patterns of their past? Or can they write a whole new story?

‘Such a fun, romantic read’ Beth O’Leary

Critics Review

Such a fun, romantic read with a brilliant concept. I loved seeing Wale open up and Temi build her confidence as their love story blossomed

Beth O'Leary, author of The Flatshare

This is novel about so much more than love, it's about changing your own story, being honest - both with others and yourself - and the power your truth has to help you find the best version of yourself
