The Last Train Home

A gorgeous will-they-won’t-they romance to curl up with this winter




A will-they-won't-they love story about two people who cross paths on the last train home and spend seven years finding their way back to one another. Perfect for fans of Beth O'Leary and Laura Jane Williams.

'Beautiful and compelling' Heidi Swain
'Two sparkling leads who will steal your heart!' Holly Miller
'One of the best books I have read this year' Emma Cooper
________________

On the last train home you expect to find...

- Standing space only
- Drunk people singing
- The overpowering smell of McDonalds

You never expect to find love.

When Abbie and Tom cross paths traveling home after a night out, their eyes meet across a crowded carriage and their connection is unmistakable.

What they don't know is that moments later they'll both be caught up in an event that will change them forever.

It is one that will bring them together. But it will also tear them apart.

A lot can happen in seven seconds. A lot can happen in seven years.

Can they find their way back to each other?
