About The Bench

' With echoes of David Nicholls's One Day , this romance has just the right mix of heart-melting moments and heart-rending near misses ' Good Housekeeping 'A wonderful, heart-tugging romance' Prima Perfect for fans of One Day and Me Before You , this is a poignant love story spanning three decades that starts and ends on a bench, by the Richard & Judy bestselling author of The Twins . It begins at the end. It begins on a bench, on a heath, where a woman waits for a man. Ten years ago, they made a pact: On this bench, on this day, they will end a love affair that's spanned three decades, or start again. They should never have met.
