About this listen

Don't miss the BRAND NEW emotional tear-jerker from international bestseller Jo Bartlett. A family drama full of love, loss and hope that will make you hold your loved ones tighter...

An emotional family dilemma inspired by a heart-breaking true story. Perfect for fans of Jodi Picoult, Emma Robinson and Kate Hewitt.

Two sisters, one heartbreaking promise...

To everyone who knows them, Louisa and Tom are the perfect couple. They have two beautiful kids, Stan and Flo, and are about to celebrate ten years of happy marriage. Life is perfect. But when Lou is dealt devastating news, that perfect life is turned upside down and Lou and Tom must reevaluate the very foundations on which their marriage is built.

Lou’s greatest concern is who will look after her children if she’s not there to care for them? Will anyone be able to love them like she does?

Holly can’t face the news that Lou is so sick, and as twins they’ve always been together. Older by twenty minutes, Holly has always tried to protect her little sister. So she’ll do anything, promise anything, to make Lou feel happy and safe. Holly loves Stan and Flo fiercely, but with no children of her own can she ever be the mother her sister wants for her children?

Determined to make the most of every precious moment, Lou’s final wish for her family is to show them what it really means to live and love. And as Tom and Holly try to navigate their own pain, all they want is to shower Flo and Stan with love and help them make the most of the time they have left with the mother who adores them.

Have the tissues ready

What an amazing story and so well narrated by everyone. The only downside is that it did waffle and repeat itself in places. But overall it was a heartwarming story of a life in a terminal cancer patient. The thoughts and frustrations they face and also those that care. Well done. You will enjoy but have the box of tissues on hand
