‘Beautifully written . . . an exquisite tale of love lost, love found and the power of letter writing.’ – Sunday Express

When journalist Ellie looks through her newspaper’s archives for a story, she doesn’t think she’ll find anything of interest. Instead she discovers a letter from 1960, written by a man asking his lover to leave her husband – and Ellie is caught up in the intrigue of a past love affair. Despite, or perhaps because of her own romantic entanglements with a married man . . .

In 1960, Jennifer wakes up in hospital after a car accident. She can’t remember anything – her husband, her friends, who she used to be. And then, when she returns home, she uncovers a hidden letter, and begins to remember the lover she was willing to risk everything for.

Ellie and Jennifer’s stories of passion, adultery and loss are wound together in this richly emotive novel – interspersed with real ‘last letters’.

Reviews

Sophie Kinsella
A fabulous, emotional and evocative book
Jenny Colgan
I lost myself completely in THE LAST LETTER FROM YOUR LOVER, I totally adored it. Utterly compulsive and swooningly romantic, it's just perfect.
Daily Telegraph
An utterly absorbing and blissfully romantic read.
Independent on Sunday
A gorgeously romantic and partner-ignoringly compulsive read.
Sunday Express
An exquisite tale of love lost, love found and the power of letter-writing
Stylist
The best book of the summer . . . a totally un-put-downable read but one that should come with a severe warning: this will make you cry buckets on the beach. Beautiful
Glamour
A fabulously romantic tale that should inspire you to scribble some love notes of your own.
Woman & Home
Two stories brilliantly intertwine in this unputdownable, top-class romantic read. You'll need to have Kleenex at the ready.
Lisa Jewell
Epic, romantic and completely and utterly brilliant
Marie Claire
A dramatic, romantic tale of lost love letters, broken hearts and hopeful outcomes . . . The story is incredibly moving, as Moyes explores the way that love and loss and a few words can make a new life or break a heart
Heat
This poignant novel will make your heart flutter
