A book about modern love, for modern women, Emma’s new novel is a conversation-starting story about leading your own life – not following. It asks a question we all think, and don’t voice enough: why do we set so much store in relationships? Does true happiness lie inside a relationship, or outside of one?

Willow is having quite the year.
One moment she’s climbing the ladder of life achievements – the boyfriend, the grown-up house, the steady career – the next it’s 4pm and she’s swaddled in her duvet, wondering what went wrong. 
Blinking into the light of a day that looks completely unfamiliar, and alienated from her friends who are busy
‘moving forwards’, Willow has never felt more alone. 
But she’s in good company. 
Because when inspiration arrives from an unlikely place - ‘the poster girl for single life’, influencer Naz Chopra - Willow can start to rekindle a relationship she’s long neglected: the one with herself.
