Two people. Ten chances . One Day in December is an unforgettable, heartbreaking, and moving love story for fans of Jojo Moyes and David Nicholls.
London, one day in December 2008. It's almost Christmas Eve, and Laurie can't wait to take advantage of the holiday and take a break from her boring routine. Nothing in her life seems to be going quite right: she still hasn't found her dream job or boyfriend.
Lost in her reverie, she takes a bus home. It's snowing, and the double-decker bus she's traveling on seems to be dragging itself toward the apartment she shares with the ebullient Sarah, her best friend since college. Until, at a stop, Laurie sees a man sitting, reading a book, and is immediately overcome with the certainty that he is the love of her life. Their eyes meet, and for a second, nothing else exists in the world... and then the bus continues on its way.
Certain they're destined to meet again, Laurie, with Sarah's help, spends nearly a year searching for him in cafes, bars, and bus stops around the city. Laurie begins to worry she'll never see the bus boy again, until Sarah introduces her to her new boyfriend, with whom she's madly in love. His name is Jack, and he's the bus boy .
Determined to forget him, Laurie moves on with her life. But what if fate has other plans?
In One Day in December , we follow the encounters and misunderstandings of Laurie, Jack, and Sarah over ten years of friendship, heartbreak, choices, missed opportunities, and twists of fate. A love story that reminds us that fate sometimes chooses tortuous paths on its path to happiness.
