One Day In December by Josie Silver

Laurie is pretty sure love at first sight doesn’t exist. After all, life isn’t a scene from the movies, is it? But then, through a misted-up bus window one freezing day, she sees a man she knows instantly is the one. Their eyes meet, there’s a moment of pure magic… and then her bus drives away.

Laurie thinks she’ll never see the boy from the bus again. But at a party later that year, her best friend Sarah introduces her to the new love of her life. Who is, of course, the boy from the bus.

Determined to let him go, Laurie gets on with her life. But what if fate has other plans?

A beautiful story following the lives of Laurie and Jack who met by a chance encounter – but it’s only a fleeting glance at a bus stop through a misted-up bus window one snowy December day. Circumstances take a turn when they meet again and are tortured into a love triangle as he is dating her best friend. The premise of a winding tale that follows young Londoners through the course of their lives, the highs and lows of love and friendship. The perfect cold weather rom-com that has you wondering whether they will ever get their happily ever after.

Following Laurie, Sarah and Jack through ten years of love, heartbreak and friendship, One Day in December is an uplifting and immensely moving love story for fans of Jojo Moyes, Sarah Morgan and Coleen Hoover.

The Two Lives of Lydia Bird by Josie Silver

What if you could live your great love story again?

Lydia and Freddie. Freddie and Lydia. They’ve been together for almost a decade, and are just about to get married. But then, on Lydia’s 27th birthday, Freddie dies in a tragic car accident.

Then something unbelievable happens. Lydia gets another chance at her old life with Freddie.

But what if there’s someone in her new life who wants her to stay?

A gorgeously romantic love story for fans of PS I Love You and Me Before You, this novel will make you laugh, cry and remind you of what a wonderful gift it is to love and to be loved.

I’m torn as to how I feel about this book. It follows the journey of Lydia Bird whose fiance dies in a car crash on her birthday. Switching between her life awake and the alternative reality she dreams whilst she sleeps – with the help of pink sleeping pills given to her by the doctor. Which made me uncomfortable, however, I can understand why she would want to dream about what life could have been like.

One Night on the Island by Josie Silver
