The Last Love Song

I was gripped and my heart broke but I fell in love anyway. A glorious story of love and loss. Utterly exquisite – Emma Cowell, author of The Island Love SongThe Last Love Song feels like the discovery of a lost treasure … It’s simply sublime. It has all the qualities we adore in Lucinda’s writing: emotional depth, complex characters, surprises, twists and turns, and above all love. She writes about love so tenderly. I adored it because it’s another brilliant Riley novel, but I adored it also because it feels like a gift … A last smile, a kiss, and poignant good-bye – Santa Montefiore, author of Shadows in the MoonlightThe Last Love Song had me hooked from the very first page. Brilliantly-drawn family dynamics and a magnetic love story meant I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough.
