The heartbreaking new novel from the Australian author who has won hearts the world over, for fans of David Nicholls and Jojo Moyes. Now a USA TODAY Bestseller!

USA TODAY BESTSELLER 2024

'Urgent, profoundly affecting and utterly unforgettable. A masterclass in compelling fiction.' - Tess Woods

'The sort of book that blocks out the rest of the world.' - Kate Solly

They say you never forget your first love. But what if you do?

Evie Hudson should be grieving her dead husband, but since the car crash that claimed his life, she can't remember him at all. The only person who can help her piece her past together is her high-school best friend, Drew Kennedy.

When snippets of her memory start falling into place, she wonders exactly how she ended up in a life that couldn't be further from the one she dreamed of. This time around, she's seeing all the things she missed... and the picture isn't pretty.

'A vivid, beautiful novel.' - People magazine

'With vulnerability and honesty, Grey takes us through the entire spectrum of love.' - Books + Publishing

Praise for The Last Love Note:

'A book to make you laugh and cry' - Oprah Daily

'Heart-wrenching, hopeful and deeply romantic. A dazzling pick-me-up.' - Rebecca Sparrow

'Unputdownable, heartbreaking and funny.' - Kelly Rimmer

'I was not prepared for this book. It was heartbreakingly beautiful and unexpectedly funny all at once. Just be warned, you will laugh out loud and you will cry.' - Sunday Telegraph

About the Author

Emma is a novelist, feature writer, photographer, professional speaker and accountability coach. She wrote her first adult novel, The Last Love Note, in the wake of her husband's death. It's a fictional tribute to their love, an attempt to articulate the magnitude of her loss and a life-affirming commitment to hope, which has gone on to win hearts around the world. In the US it was selected as a featured title for the Book of the Month and Target Book Clubs, a Washington Post noteworthy book and listed in the top 25 new releases by the American Bookseller's Association. Emma lives just outside Canberra, where her world centres on her two adult daughters, young son, loved step-children and step-grandchildren, writing, photography and endlessly chasing the Aurora Australis.
