Description
“Five giant stars. Propulsive and gut-wrenching…An all-consuming, epic love story.”—Annabel Monaghan, bestselling author of Summer Romance
One Day meets a contemporary Bridgerton in this high-drama, escapist wonder of a love story, Paige Toon’s best yet.
Three days to fall in love. Six years to try to forget.
Ellie didn’t expect to fall in love while interrailing through Europe. But she also didn’t expect to meet a man like Ash. Three blistering days in Lisbon is all it takes to form an unforgettable connection—a bond deep enough for them to scrap their itineraries and plan to meet again in Spain. But Ellie arrives late, and Ash is nowhere to be found.
Six years later, Ellie has landed her dream job working as a gardener for a viscount and viscountess on their sprawling five-hundred-year-old estate in Wales. She finds peace amongst the towering topiary hedges and colorful gardens, but her idyll is shattered when Ash crashes back into her life. And when it becomes clear why he didn’t show in Madrid, her heart breaks anew—for what the truth means for their fate.
But they have never been able to resist each other, and when the sparks of their attraction fly, Ellie’s life will catch flame. She will have to make a choice.

A Women Best New Beach Read for Your Summer TBR
“I loved it! An absolute treasure.”—Christina Lauren, New York Times bestselling author of Love and Other Words
"A deep, all-consuming love story unfolds in this epic saga." —Woman’s World
"This is a charming, beguiling tale... There is chemistry. There are misunderstandings and there are solid conversations. There are dreams and love and nature and the stars. Delightful, pure escapism in a fairy-tale romance." —Kirkus
“What If I Never Get Over You is a sweeping love story that is deep, complex and so, so riveting. I devoured this novel in one glorious gulp and still wanted more.

“Five giant stars. Paige Toon is my go-to for an all-consuming, epic love story, and this might be her best yet.

“Toon breaks hearts with this poignant tale of love, loss, and second chances... [Ash and Ellie’s] connection feels intense and palpable despite the compressed timeline of their initial affair.
