Summary

Some people go looking for love. Others crash right into it.

‘Funny and smart – a breath of fresh air!’ Claire Frost

Zara Khoury believes in love – so much so that she flies from Dubai to Liverpool to be with a man she barely knows. It’s a risk, but she’s certain that uprooting her life for Nick is the new start she needs.

Jim Glover is stuck. Since his Dad died, he’s put his dreams aside and stayed at home in Liverpool to care for his mum. Trapped in a dead-end job, he’s going nowhere – that is, until he gets a phone call that just might change his life..

Zara and Jim aren’t supposed to meet. But then fate steps in, and when their worlds – and cars! – collide, the real journey begins…

A gorgeous tale about taking risks and living life to the full – perfect for fans of Beth O’Leary and Josie Silver. If you love Never Saw You Coming, don’t miss Hayley Doyle’s new book Love, Almost.

Critic reviews

"This very modern love story is quirky, fun and full of surprises. I loved getting to know Jim and Zara on their road trip and watching as their love/hate relationship developed against the background of a very real and vibrant Liverpool. Hayley's writing is funny and smart – a real breath of fresh air!" (Claire Frost, author of Living My Best Life)

"A tale that will leave you smiling!" (Bella magazine)

"Funny, fresh, and perfect for when you need a feel-good treat." (Nicola Gill, author of The Neighbours)

thoroughly enjoyable story!

I can't recommend this audiobook enough. The narration is great, I felt like I was best mates with the characters and I really want another installment to follow up on their story! I'd seen the authors mam proudly showing off her personal copy of the book via Facebook and decided to buy it myself and I'm so pleased I did!

Good but what a rubbish ending.

This was a really good book, narration was really easy to listen too. But the ended just wasn't what I thought, it just stops suddenly.

A great find !

I absolutely loved this book! Both characters are adorable. This is not the genre I would usually choose, but the title caught my eye so I decided to give it a try. I was immediately hooked and couldn't wait to find out what happens to them both. There were many moments that I laughed loudly. It is so true to life. It really made me think about life and how you need to take that leap of faith! And it also makes me want to take a trip to Liveroool as I've never been there before and live in England.
I am so disappointed that I have finished it and jealous of those who are about to start this book. Highly recommend!
Stephen Flethcer and Georgia Maguire make this book come alive! A great choice of people to read this story.
I would love to see this book become film!

Thoroughly enjoyable

I really enjoyed listening to this, an excellent not quite the usual conventional love story! Narration was also very very good! Would thoroughly recommend it
