Previously published as When You Said Forever by Simon King

It’s not the happily ever after she expected.

Meeting the love of her life in a McDonald’s Drive-Thru wasn’t how Millie ever imagined it, and yet there he was. The whirlwind romance should have been the start of the rest of their lives, the eventual wedding the stepping stone to their new life in New York City. And yet for Marcus and Millie, fate had other ideas.

In one split second, her life comes crashing down when Marcus is taken in a tragic accident, leaving Millie the heir to one of the most successful companies in the city. Living atop a building she now owns, the heartbreak soon takes its toll, with the young widow refusing to leave the safety of the apartment. Months turn into years, Millie’s grief keeping her isolated, until one fateful moment brings her back to reality.

Marcus’s final gift, a strange telescope, gives her a small peek into the lives of those in the city below. But something about the antique feels strange, as if connected to a higher power, willing Millie’s attention towards certain people. When a desperate young girl crosses her sights, Millie must overcome her grief to try and save the life of a stranger. With the girl threatening to end it all, will Millie find the strength to finally step beyond the door, or has the telescope sent her on a journey to unravel a secret linked to her own past?

With hints of P.S. I Love You, and Ghost, prepare for an emotional roller-coaster, as Helena Rosie's debut novel keeps you up long into the night, cheering for Millie, while keeping a box of tissues close at hand. Grab Love Never After now and see why this story is bound to remain with you long after you finish.
