Publisher's Summary

From the New York Times best-selling author of This Time Next Year comes a heartwarming and hilarious tale that asks: What if you picked up the wrong suitcase and fell head over heels for its mystery owner?

Hopeless romantic and lifestyle reporter Laura’s business trip to the Channel Islands isn’t off to a great start. After an embarrassing encounter with the most attractive man she’s ever seen in real life, she arrives at her hotel and realizes she’s grabbed the wrong suitcase from the airport. Her only consolation is its irresistible contents, each of which intrigues her more and more. The owner of this suitcase is clearly Laura’s dream man. Now, all she has to do is find him.

Besides, what are the odds that she’d find The One on the same island where her parents first met and fell in love, especially as she sets out to write an article about their romance? Commissioning surly cab driver Ted to ferry her around seems like her best bet in both tracking down the mystery suitcase owner and retracing her parents’ footsteps. But as Laura’s mystery man proves difficult to find - and as she uncovers family secrets - she may have to reimagine the life, and love, she always thought she wanted.

What the critics say

"Cousens creates a world full of lovable characters who are all trying their best to be happy despite life’s many obstacles. Although all the characters are dealing with their own hardships, Cousens imbues the entire story with an uplifting sense of hope…The Jersey setting creates a cozy, wind-swept background to the deliciously slow-burn romance. A warm, witty, and absolutely charming seaside holiday that’s perfect for fans of Sophie Kinsella.” (Kirkus Reviews, starred review)

“Appealing...Humor and poignancy keep the pages turning. Fans of Sophie Kinsella and Josie Silver will find plenty to enjoy.” (Publishers Weekly)

“At times heartbreaking and incredibly hopeful, Cousens’s delightful read is a sweet romance that gives Laura the freedom to grow as a character. Readers of Jill Mansell or Mhairi McFarlane will definitely enjoy." (Library Journal)

Loved this book!

This is one of my all time favourite Rom-Com's! I loved the story, the humor, and the sea side setting you get lost in. I was really impressed by Charlotte Beaumont's narration. She really made the story come to life! Hope to hear more books by both the author and narrator.

Mediocre romcom

Story had potential but the main character was shallow, silly and immature. This was not helped by the narration which was poorly done and at times made me cringe.

Shockingly good!

This was the best rom-com I have heard in years. Every element: the writing, the story, the characters, and the narration were all superb. I didn’t want it to end!

Great easy listen - loved it!

This is the first audiobook I listened too that I was enthralled in. The performance was immaculate. Full of character, emotion and she never missed a beat. The characters are complex and you fall in love with all of them. Overall a great book, great plot and keeps you wanting to keep listening. I wish there was more by this author and performer.

Cute & fun

Overall an enjoyable little romance with some fun twists. A few little things were predictable but not everything. Narration was good & kept it engaging.

Mid

I didn't really enjoy this one

The plot is absolutely predictable and full of overused tropes. There only so many times you can subvert expectations before it becomes lazy writing.

The main character is insufferable; they have absolute confidence in everything they get wrong, and no confidence in anything else

The narrator is low energy, and lacks range in their characters voices

I felt I was just waiting for the book to end.

Unlikable main character

Struggled to get through the book. Difficult main character to like. Did not enjoy as much as I hoped.
