Description
THE MUST-READ ROMANCE NOVEL OF THE YEAR
‘Original, heartfelt and absorbing, I read it in one sitting.’ JOSIE SILVER, bestselling author of One Day in December
What if you could do all the things you never did . . .
Meet Olivia. Her life is just about perfect. She has a great job, a close-knit family — and she’s going to marry the love of her life this summer.
So what’s missing? She’s twenty-eight years old and she’s never left her hometown. And Jake is the only boyfriend she’s ever had. Her friends tell her how lucky she is — and Liv believes them. But there’s still something bugging her.
After a romantic lakeside picnic to celebrate their one-year engagement, Liv takes a stroll to clear her head. She slips and loses her balance, plunging into the cold lake water . . .
When Liv wakes up, she’s in a hospital bed. The nurse tells her she was brought in by a dog walker who found her unconscious.
But Liv has no scratches or bruises. And there’s no engagement ring on her finger.
Her family, her fiancé and everyone else she thought she knew don’t know who she is. And Jake is about to propose to somebody else.
So now Liv has a chance to do all the things she never did. But maybe she doesn’t want to. Maybe she wants Jake to fall in love with her all over again . . .
The Love I Could Have Had is an extraordinary and unforgettable novel for anyone who has ever believed in destiny and soulmates — or paused to wonder what your life might look like if you'd made a different choice.
This powerful love story is perfect for fans of Taylor Jenkins Reid, Audrey Niffenegger, Jojo Moyes, David Nicholls, Colleen Hoover, Laura Barnett, Rebecca Searle and Holly Miller.
