Synopsis

A Walk to Remember meets Jojo Moyes in a stunning love story following one woman who has already seen how her story will end and the one man determined to change it . . .

When Alec asks Jess out, she knows it won't work. Is Alec charming? Of course. Attractive? Definitely. Can she not stop thinking about him . . . yes, but that's also the problem. Because Jess has rules. And the first? Don't fall in love.

What no one knows is that Jess has inherited Huntington's disease from the mother that she cares for. And while witnessing her own future play out, Jess has learnt to keep everyone and everything at arm's length. But Alec is determined to break down those barriers. When she finally tells him why they have no future, he proposes a different option—just one month together.

One month to date. One month to live. One month to fall in love.

But as Jess grows closer to Alec, she knows she has to end it. It's better that he is hurt now rather than heartbroken later, isn't it?

An emotionally weighty story of love in all its forms, this tender debut is perfect for fans of Jill Santopolo, Tracey Garvis Graves, and Colleen Hoover.

This book was gifted to me by the publisher with tissues and under eye patches so I had to assume this was going to be a tear jerker! This one is for fans of My Oxford Year...

Goodreads review by Rebecca on June 21, 2021

I adored this beautiful and tender love story. Skilfully and sensitively told. One Month of You will break your heart and re-build it. At the novel’s outset, Jess is coming to terms with not only her mother’s degeneration with Huntington’s Disease but also her own diagnosis with the same. As a resul......more

Goodreads review by Shannon on February 13, 2023

I really, really enjoyed this mother-daughter story about a young British woman serving as caretaker for her mother who has Huntington's Disease. She also finds out she herself has the gene and swears off any romantic relationships only to keep getting drawn back into a cute bartender's orbit. Unabl......more
