Description: Some love stories end before they even begin…
When Lili meets Ben by chance one hot summer’s day, it feels like fate. But life is about to take them in different directions, and so they agree to meet next July, in the beautiful hidden garden where they first laid eyes on each other. But one of them never shows up…
Five years later, Ben still wonders how he got things so wrong – he let the love of his life slip between his fingers. And then a stranger, Alice, arrives in his tiny Scottish hometown. Alice has no memory of how she got there: she can’t remember anything before that morning. The only clue to her past is the silver bee necklace she wears – the very same one Ben bought for Lili that magical summer’s day…
As Ben, Lili and Alice’s stories converge, so begins a beautiful and deeply emotional story of love, forgiveness and second chances.

Why We Liked It
Never Forget You is poignant and emotional, and a totally gripping read.
The skill in which Fiona creates the two storylines and the split timelines is powerful and although it deals with some very difficult issues, they are handled carefully by the author, and there is a content warning.
Despite this, the overall feeling is one of love and hope as a beautiful love story unfolds.
An emotional and compelling read.
Highly Recommended
