Product Description

From the no. 1 bestselling author of PS, I Love You comes an enchanting novel about two childhood friends whom fate and destiny can't help toying with! From naughty children to rebellious teenagers, Rosie and Alex have stuck by each other through thick and thin. But just as they're discovering the joys of teenage nights on the town and dating disasters, they're separated. Alex's family moves from Dublin to America -- and Alex goes with them. For good. Rosie's lost without her best friend. But on the eve of her departure to join Alex in Boston, Rosie gets news that will change her life forever -- and keep her at home in Ireland. Their magical connection sees them through the ups and downs of each other's lives but neither of them knows whether their friendship can really survive the years and miles -- as well as new relationships. And at the back of Rosie's mind is whether they were meant to be more than just good friends all along. Misunderstandings, circumstances and sheer bad luck have kept them out of each others' arms, but when presented with the ultimate opportunity, will they gamble everything -- including their friendship -- for true love? Destiny, Alex and Rosie discover, is a funny thing and fate isn't quite done with them yet!

Customer Reviews

For anyone who's ever wondered what if..
If you're looking for a PS I Love You part two, then you will be sadly disappointed. Instead you step in to the world of Rosie Dunne and her best friend Alex Stewart. Rosie is an ordinary woman trying to get on with her day to day life who quite simply misses her best friend. What starts out as an innocent childhood friendship turns to love, yet neither of them realise it.

This is a beautifully written tale of two people who share a deep rooted friendship who are seperated at a young age. It is a cleverly written story told in the form of emails, instant messages, letters and text messages which span 45 years. It contains a variety of emotions, one minute you are laughing and the next you are wiping away the tears, but throughout the book you carry the hope that this time they really will get it together. Quite simply, you'd be really stupid to pass up the chance to read this novel.

Couldn't put it down - brilliant
I started to read this book last night and finished it this morning. It is one of those books, which you just have to find out what happens at end, i don't want to spoil the book for people who are going to read it, but it is written in a very unique and clever way. have you ever read a book and thought - i wish i had thought of that idea?! thats what i thought when i read it. i couldn't wait to find out what happened between the two main characters Rosie and Alex. You follow them both through every encounter in their lives, along with a few other characters, it is funny and also sad. i really don't want to say to much about what it is about as i'll probably ruin it, but it is definatly a good read. I read it in less than 24hrs so it must be good.

When i finshed it though it really made me think, it makes you want to seize the day and makes you think about every missed oppourtunity you have encountered in your life. It made me think that if you want something or someone then you have to go for it, even if its hard and even if you don't get it, it is worth trying, otherwise you'll regret it and never know. Sorry, i have side tracked a bit here, but having just finshed it this has how it has made me feel.

i would definatly recommend this book, but i am gutted i read it so quick because i got really into it and really enjoyed it.

i can't wait for cecila's next one ( i hope there will be a next one!)

Well worth the read x

a great airport find
I was at the airport and really wanted a great holiday read. I picked this book because i had recently borrowed "P.S I Love You" off my best friend and loved it to bits. I was not disappointed with this book, it kept me entertained for my holiday (however i finished it half-way through the holiday as I could not put it down!)I remember on one occasion laughing out loud reading it, i got some very strange looks to say the least.
Also, i found the way in which it was written in the form of e-mails, instant messages and letters really great because you could easily find a place to stop.
I would recommend this to anyone, especially those requiring a great holiday read!
