About this listen

A passionate novel from the Sunday Times bestselling author of The Magnificent Mrs Mayhew - a gorgeous read full of hope, warmth and heartfelt emotion. ​

Laurie and Pete should never have met.
But fate has pushed them together for a reason.

Six months ago, on the same night, Laurie and Pete both lost their partners.
Struggling to manage the grief, they join the same counselling group – and meet each other.

From their sadness, Pete and Laurie find happiness growing and they sense a fresh new beginning.
Except, the more they talk, the more they begin to spot the strange parallels in their stories.
Then Pete discovers a truth that changes everything.

But, as surely as a compass points north, some people cannot be kept apart.

My One True North is a story of friendship and what love means, of secrets uncovered, teashops on corners and the northern lights.©2020 Milly Johnson (P)2020 Simon & Schuster, UK

Romantic storytelling at its finest.

Story and Narration Perfect. Romantic, humorous and covered grief, sterility and magic. Isn't that just the definition of my life. Thank you Milly and Colleen.

Nice story to pass the time

Whilst I did have trouble getting into this book to begin with, once I was familiar with characters and back stories, I was able to really enjoy it. Likable characters with Interesting plots and sub-plots. I wasn't overly keen on Colleen Prendergast's style of narration - a bit too stilted and overly enunciated in some parts - but it wasn't the worst.
