Summary

Life can change in a heartbeat....

When struggling actress Heidi has a life-changing accident aged 32, her world falls apart. Stuck in hospital and unable to walk, her only companion is Maud, the elderly lady in the bed next to hers. Heidi misses her flatmate, her life, her freedom - surely 32 is too young to be an amputee?

But when Maud's aloof but attractive grandson Jack pays a visit to the ward, Heidi realises that her life isn't over just because it's different. It might not look like the life she dreamed of, but it's the one she's got - and there's a lot she still wants to tick off her bucket list. With Jack at her side, will Heidi take the first step back to happiness? Or is there one more surprise still in store....

A feel-good read based on the inspiring true story of journalist Ella Dove. Sometimes all it takes is one small step....

A personal insight into a life affected by tragedy

I found this book a real inspiration from someone who experienced such a dramatic event in life. It highlights the fragility of our lives

Through the author, I was able to feel the emotions and struggles of someone living with an amputee life

Dreadful book

Poorly written and trite. The author might have done better to write her experience as non fiction.
