"A witty, poignant, and uplifting story of two lives crisscrossing over the years, with near miss after near miss. . . . I couldn't put it down." —Sophie Kinsella, #1 New York Times–bestselling author of Confessions of a Shopaholic A wryly romantic debut novel that asks, what if you just walked by the love of your life, but didn't even know it? "TODAY IS THE FIRST DAY OF THE REST OF YOUR LIFE." Tess can't get the motto from her mother's kitchen knickknack out of her head, even though she's in Florence on an idyllic vacation before starting university in London. Gus is also visiting Florence, on a holiday with his parents seven months after tragedy shattered their lives. Headed to medical school in London, he's trying to be a dutiful son but longs to escape and discover who he really is. A chance meeting brings these eighteen-year-olds together for a brief moment—the first of many times their paths will crisscross as time passes and their lives diverge from those they'd envisioned. Over the course of the next sixteen years, Tess and Gus will face very different challenges and choices. Separated by distance and circumstance, the possibility of these two connecting once more seems slight. But while fate can separate two people, it can also bring them back together again . . .

"I must say, I'm very disappointed to add this to my DNF books. I've read about 150 pages, which has taken just over two weeks - which is very unlike me. I couldn't get into it. I found the two main characters, Gus and Tess to have very sad and dull stories, when I was expecting a romance. Maybe it turns into more of a romance later on, but for now, I couldn't get through it. .<br/>1 🌟 for now. Maybe I'll be able to get into it on another try."

"What an incredibly beautiful story! Tess and Gus spend a lifetime of almosts, a series of seemingly inconsequential brief encounters as we follow them in their lives from teenagers to adulthood. A love story like no other, it shares the paths of two people fated to meet again and again until the time is right. Truly makes you think about timing and how one small changed plan may have or could change the outcome of your entire life. Highly recommended read!!"
