From NUMBER ONE bestseller Zoë Folbigg comes this beautiful, romantic tale of finding love in the most unexpected places. Perfect for fans of David Nicholls, Jojo Moyes and Mhairi McFarlane! Under the midnight sun of Arctic Norway, Cecilie goes online looking for friends, and stumbles across Hector Herrera. They start chatting and soon realise that they might have just fallen in love. But there’s a problem: Hector lives thousands of miles away in Mexico. And he's running from a tragic past.

Cecilie's whole life has been anchored by sticking to what she knows and her job at the cafe in the town in which she grew up. Can she really make a leap of faith for someone she's never met? And will Hector break free to change the path he's on?

An unforgettable story about two people, living two very different lives under the same sky, and whether they can cross oceans, seas and fjords to give their love a chance.
