"A beautifully observed, tender love story with characters you really care about...a bit like Normal People. I devoured it."Jojo Moyes, New York Times bestselling author of Someone Else's Shoes
"I absolutely adored Talking at Night... A gorgeous story of first love, loss, and the people who stick to your ribs, it should be on everyone's must-read list. Beautiful, poignant, and heart-wrenching in the best way possible." Carley Fortune, New York Times bestselling author of Every Summer After
Secret walks and late-night phone calls. An undeniable chemistry. A tragedy that haunts them both. A powerful yet tender love story between two people who can't help but be pulled back to each other.
This is the story of Will and Rosie. The two are opposites in every way and yet they fall for each other as teenagers; nineties music, sideways glances, sunsets and bonfires and talking late into the night. It's palpable, inevitable: they're on the precipice of starting something wonderful. Until one day, tragedy strikes, and any possibility of being together seems to shatter.
But time and again, Rosie and Will find their way back to each other. Though the years pass, they cannot quite let go of what might have been.
Talking at Night tells a story of sudden connections, missed opportunities, the many loves we have over a lifetime--and the one that keeps us coming back, again and again, for more.
Claire Daverley has been writing stories ever since she was six years old, inspired by art and film and her many trips to the library. After graduating with a degree in fine art from the University of Oxford, she began a career in publishing, writing about books by day but penning her own by night, on trains, and in the early mornings. She currently lives in Hitchin, Hertfordshire, England, with her husband and spaniel. Talking at Night is her debut novel.
