All The Days

She’s desperate to keep the past a secret; he lives in a world without secrets—are either of them ready to face the truth?

“Be Brave. Be Honest. Make All The Days Count.”

That’s the motto Lara Quinn has clung to ever since surviving a violent crime. Now, almost a year on and still struggling to revive her old life, Lara retreats to her quiet hometown with a plan: Keep her head down, music up, and avoid any drama. Simple. Until a meet-cute-worthy collision with an Austen-quoting actor throws a spanner in the works.

Theodore Jackson’s life is nothing but drama. Fed up with being in the spotlight for all the wrong reasons, he takes a role set in rural Wales, away from distractions. Except for Lara. Her shy, creative mind speaks a language that he’s determined to understand. As walls crumble and acts are dropped, Theo can finally be the character he was born to play—himself—while Lara discovers that some things are worth the drama…

But the secrets she’s keeping about her past threaten their future. When an unexpected visit from her boss risks exposing everything, Lara must find a way to confront the past and live up to her motto. Theo is her second chance to heal and build a new life—if she can be brave and honest enough to make it count.

★★★★★
This is a great debut novel about two people from very different lives who meet by chance. There’s a movie star, a secret ex, a slow-burn romance, besties, lies, and betrayal… a beautiful story about overcoming trauma, embracing your past, trusting after past hurts, and moving on. It was a reminder that your past doesn’t have to define you. I highly recommend this novel.
