‘I enjoyed this book very much’ Dorothy Koomson
Falling in love isn’t a choice. . .
Since the moment they met, Ryan and Taylor have shared an unspoken bond. Taylor’s drawn to Ryan more strongly than she thought possible and for some reason only he seems able to lift her out of the darkness in her past.
But Ryan is with Marcy – her best friend.
Marcy stood by Taylor when everything else had fallen apart, and Taylor refuses to risk their friendship now. Somehow she needs to resist what she’s feeling. Yet, when Marcy leaves for a few weeks just as Ryan moves in to their shared flat, the tension grows to unbearable proportions. As the line between right and wrong becomes blurred, Taylor will have to decide whether she can – or should – turn away from what might be the love of her life.
Evocative, moving and heartrendingly romantic, this is a story about real life, true love and the power of friendship.

When twenty-something Taylor makes a tragic discovery one morning while walking her dog, all of her relationships, both present and past, are thrown into chaos. The Nearness of You is a quiet, thoughtful novel that looks at all the different types of love we experience in our lives and how they shape who we are. It tackles a difficult subject in a very sensitive way. I enjoyed this book very much
