Fiction. Literature. Romance. HTML:From the New York Times bestselling author of Me Before You and One Plus One, a surprising and moving romance set in an old-fashioned seaside town on the verge of unwelcome change
Liza McCullen will never fully escape her past. But the unspoiled beaches and tight-knit community of Silver Bay offer the freedom and safety she cravesâ??if not for herself, then for her young daughter, Hannah. That is, until Mike Dormer arrives as a guest in her auntâ??s hotel.
The mild-mannered Englishman with his too-smart clothes and distracting eyes could destroy everything Liza has worked so hard to protect: not only the family business and the bay that harbors her beloved whales, but also her conviction that she will never loveâ??never deserve to loveâ??again.
For his part, Mike Dormer is expecting just another business dealâ??an easy job kick-starting a resort in a small seaside town ripe for development. But he finds that he doesnâ??t quite know what to make of the eccentric inhabitants of the ramshackle Silver Bay Hotel, especially not enigmatic Liza McCullen, and their claim to the surrounding waters.
As the development begins to take on a momentum of its own, Mikeâ??s and Lizaâ??s worlds collide in this hugely affecting and irresistible tale full of Jojo Moyesâ??s sign

When you're in the mood for a woven love story JoJo doesn't dissappoint. I enjoyed getting to know the residents of Silver Bay and watching love unfold with some twists to keep it interesting. ( )

Up to Jojo's standard, not quite as good as some others, but still worth a read, still entertaining, and still well written. ( )

Well written story of Mike Dormer, a British property developer who goes to Silver Bay, New South Wales, to research his company's latest development project planned for the local area. He finds himself seduced by the locality and the characters who extract a marginal living from running whale watching tours, eventually realising the impact such a development would have. He is also drawn to Liza, an ex-pat Brit, and her daughter, who harbour some dark secret. Interesting, well-drawn characters as well as evident local research which brings Silver Bay and its inhabitants alive as a place. ( )

Beautifully done. This is my very first Jojo Moyes novel, and I was not disappointed. I now know what all the clamor is about; this novelist has some mad talent.
While the style she has of every chapter being from a different character's viewpoint was at first annoying, I quickly got into the rhythm of the storyline, and clearly gobbled it up! I wanted to keep reading throughout the nighttime. (Stupid life...!)
While sometimes too many points of view are hard to follow, this particular novel worked, in the end. Not only do you learn a lot about the main few characters, but also the secondary ones. The pages flew by, mostly due to the fact that the ending was not expected and kept you guessing. From what I've heard about Jojo Moyes' way, I cried many happy and sad tears along the way, like many other readers.
I will be reading more of her works, very soon.
5 stars, job well done. ( )

I have yet to read a Jojo Moyes novel that I did not thoroughly enjoy. This one was an older novel of hers, and it was a little slower to start than some of her more recent books.

Jojo is a wonderful storyteller and has the ability to convey the emotionality of her characters in a way I've never seen before. This book was no exception.

Looking forward to her next novel! ( )

Liza McCullen non potrà mai fuggire dal suo passato. Ma le spiagge incontaminate di Silver Bay e la sua piccola, affettuosa comunità sembrano poterle offrire la libertà e la sicurezza di cui ha bisogno, se non per se stessa almeno per la figlia Hannah. Fino al giorno in cui nell'albergo gestito dalla zia Kathleen non arriva Mike Dormer, trasferitosi da Londra sulle coste australiane per avviare un hotel di lusso. Per lui si tratta solo di un'altra tappa nella sua folgorante carriera, un'altra occasione per guadagnare un sacco di soldi. Ma per Liza il suo arrivo rappresenta una minaccia: per la tranquillità economica della famiglia e per le balene che a Silver Bay trovano rifugio. E soprattutto per la determinazione a non innamorarsi mai più...

PROLOGUE - My name is Kathleen Wittier Mostyn, and when I was seventeen I became famous for catching the biggest shark New South Wales had ever seen: a gray nurse with an eye so mean it still looked like it wanted to rip me in two several days after we'd laid it out.
CHAPTER I - If you stuck your hand in right up to the wrist, you could usually uncover at least three different kinds of biscuit in Moby One's jar.
