It All Started With You - A heartbreaking, uplifting read from Debbie Howells for summer 2023 (Unabridged)

A totally brilliant, escapist and uplifting read that will break your heart and put it back together again, perfect for fans of Cathy Kelly, Jill Mansell and Debbie Macomber.

I always thought I was going to be a girl who did something. I was going to run my own business and find fame and fortune! Fall in love...
But here I am. Still waiting for it all to happen, sitting on the floor, surrounded by lilies and roses, trying to do my best friend's wedding flowers because - in her words - 'how hard can it be, Frankie?'. The answer is actually 'very hard' but it's not the only thing that's tough right now. My boyfriend won't commit, I barely have a job, and once again I have the hangover from hell...
What I don't know is that life's about to throw me a curveball. A new friend I will make with a beautiful, sad-eyed little boy who is so very tragically ill. I still don't know about that heartbreak.
Even so, in this moment, I know that it's time for some changes. Maybe it's time to make my dreams come true? To try to become a marathon-running, healthy-living, wildly-in-love florist-to-the-stars!
Because I'm beginning to realise that you only get one chance at life. I don't yet know how you change everything, all at once, but what I do know is it all starts with me...
