Há dez anos, Jess Thomas ficou grávida e largou a escola para se casar com Marty. Dois anos atrás, Marty saiu de casa e nunca mais voltou. Fazendo faxinas de manhã e trabalhando como garçonete em um pub à noite, Jess mal ganha o suficiente para sustentar a filha Tanzie e o enteado Nicky, que ela cria há oito anos. Jess está muito preocupada com o sensível Nicky, um adolescente gótico e mal-humorado que vive apanhando dos colegas. Já Tanzie, o pequeno gênio da matemática, tem outro problema: ela acabou de receber uma generosa bolsa de estudos em uma escola particular, mas Jess não tem condições de pagar a diferença. Sua única esperança é que a menina vença uma Olimpíada de Matemática que será disputada na Escócia. Mas como eles farão para chegar lá? Enquanto isso, um dos clientes de faxina de Jess, o gênio da computação Ed Nicholls, decide se refugiar em sua casa de praia por causa de uma denúncia de práticas ilegais envolvendo sua empresa. Entre ele e Jess ocorre o que pode ser chamado de ódio à primeira vista. Mas quando Ed fica bêbado no pub em que Jess trabalha, ela faz questão de deixá-lo em casa, em segurança. Em parte agradecido, mas principalmente para escapar da pressão dos advogados, da ex-mulher e da irmã ― que insiste em que ele vá visitar o pai doente ―, Ed oferece uma carona a Jess, os filhos e o enorme cão da família até a cidade onde acontecerá o torneio. Começa então uma viagem repleta de enjoos, comida ruim e engarrafamentos. A situação perfeita para o início de uma história de amor entre uma mãe solteira falida e um geek milionário. “Leiam esse livro. Na verdade, leiam todos os livros de Jojo Moyes, porque eles falam sobre a vida cotidiana. Se você tem algum sentimento ou empatia, se vive e respira como qualquer ser humano, tenho que pedir que leia os livros dela.” The World Book Night Book Club

One single mom. One chaotic family. One quirky stranger. One irresistible love story from the New York Times bestselling author of The Giver of Stars and the forthcoming Someone Else''s Shoes Suppose your life sucks. A lot. Your husband has done a vanishing act, your teenage stepson is being bullied, and your math whiz daughter has a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that you can’t afford to pay for. That’s Jess’s life in a nutshell—until an unexpected knight in shining armor offers to rescue them. Only Jess’s knight turns out to be Geeky Ed, the obnoxious tech millionaire whose vacation home she happens to clean. But Ed has big problems of his own, and driving the dysfunctional family to the Math Olympiad feels like his first unselfish act in ages . . . maybe ever. One Plus One is Jojo Moyes at her astounding best. You’ll laugh, you’ll weep, and when you flip the last page, you’ll want to start all over again.

From the New York Times bestselling author of Me Before You and One Plus One, in an earlier work available in the U.S. for the first time, a surprising and moving romance set in an old-fashioned seaside town on the verge of unwelcome change Liza McCullen will never fully escape her past. But the unspoiled beaches and tight-knit community of Silver Bay offer the freedom and safety she craves—if not for herself, then for her young daughter, Hannah. That is, until Mike Dormer arrives as a guest in her aunt’s hotel. The mild-mannered Englishman with his too-smart clothes and distracting eyes could destroy everything Liza has worked so hard to protect: not only the family business and the bay that harbors her beloved whales, but also her conviction that she will never love—never deserve to love—again. For his part, Mike Dormer is expecting just another business deal—an easy job kick-starting a resort in a small seaside town ripe for development. But he finds that he doesn’t quite know what to make of the eccentric inhabitants of the ramshackle Silver Bay Hotel, especially not enigmatic Liza McCullen, and their claim to the surrounding waters. As the development begins to take on a momentum of its own, Mike’s and Liza’s worlds collide in this hugely affecting and irresistible tale full of Jojo Moyes’s signature humor and generosity.

Vivendo com os irmãos e os sobrinhos em sua pequena cidade natal, agora ocupada pelos soldados alemães, Sophie apega-se às lembranças do marido admirando um retrato seu pintado por Édouard.

Quase um século depois, na Londres dos anos 2000, a jovem viúva Liv Halston mora sozinha numa moderna casa com paredes de vidro. Ocupando lugar de destaque, um retrato de uma bela jovem, presente do seu marido pouco antes de sua morte prematura, a mantém ligada ao passado. Quando Liv finalmente parece disposta a voltar à vida, um encontro inesperado vai revelar o verdadeiro valor daquela pintura e sua tumultuada trajetória. Ao mergulhar na história da garota do quadro, Liv vê, mais uma vez, sua própria vida virar de cabeça para baixo. Tecido com habilidade, A garota que você deixou para trás alterna momentos tristes e alegres, sem descuidar dos meandros das grandes histórias de amor e da delicadeza dos finais felizes.] “Uma história ao mesmo tempo adorável e irônica.

From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Me Before You, the basis for the major motion picture, comes the touching, unforgettable story of three generations of Irish women faced with the fundamental truths of love, duty, and the unbreakable bond that unites mothers and daughters. Estranged from her mother since she ran away from her rural Irish home as a young woman, Kate swore a future oath that she’d always be a friend to her daughter, Sabine. But history has a way of repeating itself, and Kate now faces an ever-widening chasm between herself and her daughter. With Sabine about to make her own journey to Ireland to see the grandmother Kate abandoned, Kate is left wondering how they ever made it here, and what she can do to close the gap between them. For Joy, seeing her granddaughter is a dream come true. After the painful separation from Kate, she’s looking forward to having time with Sabine. Yet almost as soon as the young woman arrives, the lack of common ground between them deflates her enthusiasm. And when Sabine’s impetuous, inquisitive nature forces Joy to face long-buried secrets from her past, she realizes that perhaps it’s time to finally heal old wounds. “This perceptive…novel does the mother-and-daughter thing in page-turning style.”--Elle

But within two years rumours have begun to circulate about Athene''s affair with a young salesman. Thirty five years on, Suzanna Peacock is struggling with her glamorous mother''s legacy.
