Lou Clark knows lots of things. She knows how many footsteps there are between the bus stop and home. She knows she likes working in The Buttered Bun tea shop and she knows she might not love her boyfriend Patrick. What Lou doesn't know is she's about to lose her job or that knowing what's coming is what keeps her sane.
Will Traynor knows his motorcycle accident took away his desire to live. He knows everything feels very small and rather joyless now and he knows exactly how he's going to put a stop to that.
What Will doesn't know is that Lou is about to burst into his world in a riot of colour. And neither of them knows they're going to change the other for all time.

Two women meet in a lifeboat as the Titanic sinks. May and her family were outward bound for Idaho but her husband and baby are lost in the sinking. Wealthy Celeste, returning from her mother's funeral in Lichfield to her son and abusing husband, befriends this third class passenger. Then the Captain rescues a child and May clings on to her with relief. As dawn comes and the Carpathia rescues the survivors, a friendship destined to last a lifetime is forged despite social differences but then May makes a startling discovery. Her split second decision changes all their lives for ever.
From the streets of New York where Angelo waits in vain for his Italian wife and baby, to Lichfield's Cathedral Close, via Tuscany's rolling hills, the unfolding story spans fifty years, two continents and the secret of that fateful night reverberates through three generations of these survivors.

Why can no one believe Holly and Brett are content with their single lives? Certainly their interfering parents don't and they decide to take action. The 'Opposites Attract' dating agency has the theory if normal matchmaking hasn't worked they'll turn it upside down. The uptight British policewoman and the laid-back Southern writer are complete opposites and so will make the perfect mismatch. A weekend in Paris turns magical but secrets, lies and sheer stubbornness threaten this romance before it hardly gets off the ground. Holly and Brett will fight love all the way and it's a question of who'll give in first.
