Falling

Meer over het boek

The New York Times bestselling author presents a novel about the unexpected joys of finding a home and family. Emma Montague leaves her restrictive British upbringing for New York, believing it will bring her happiness. Initially liberated by her high-paying job, luxurious apartment, and a series of relationships, she soon realizes that the cutthroat finance world and relentless ambition are not what she desires. Seeking a fresh start, Emma moves to the charming waterfront town of Westport, Connecticut, a stark contrast to her previous lives. Here, she begins to explore what she truly wants. With no job and only one acquaintance, she focuses on transforming the rundown cottage she rents from Dominic, a local handyman and devoted father to his six-year-old son. Dominic is unlike anyone Emma has met—confident, grounded, and present. Their friendship deepens into something more as Emma discovers a sense of belonging she has never experienced before. However, just as they envision a future together, unforeseen circumstances challenge their budding relationship. For the first time, Emma must fight for what she loves and confront her true self, in a story of changing seasons, shifting lives, and selfless love.
