Never Greener – The bestselling second-chance romance from the Sunday Times bestseller (Paperback)

Our summary description

As Independent Scottish booksellers, we write all of our descriptions personally, we hope you enjoy this one.

Seventeen years after a brief, consuming affair, Kate believes the past is settled. She is an actress with a career she worked hard for, a marriage that feels steady, and a young daughter anchoring her life in London. Callum, once the centre of her emotional world, has built something solid of his own in Edinburgh, a family shaped by time and compromise.

When they meet again, it is not with drama but with the quiet shock of recognition. What remains between them is not simply desire, but memory, regret, and the unsettling sense that certain moments never fully loosen their hold. Never Greener is less about rekindling a romance than about the weight of choices made young, and the lives that grow around them.

Set between cities and across years, the novel explores how love alters with age, how fidelity is tested by memory, and how the past can feel unexpectedly present, asking to be acknowledged rather than undone.
