Also known as People We Meet On Vacation

Two friends. Ten trips. Their last chance to fall in love...

12 YEARS AGO: Poppy and Alex meet. They hate each other and are pretty confident they'll never speak again.

11 YEARS AGO: They're forced to share a ride home from college and by the end of it a friendship is formed. And a pact: every year, one vacation together.

10 YEARS AGO: Alex discovers his fear of flying on the way to Vancouver. Poppy holds his hand the whole way.

7 YEARS AGO: They get far too drunk and narrowly avoid getting matching tattoos in New Orleans.

2 YEARS AGO: It all goes wrong.

THIS YEAR: Poppy asks Alex to join her on one last trip. A trip that will determine the rest of their lives.

You and Me on Vacation is a New York Times bestselling love story for fans of When Harry Met Sally, One Day and Casey McQuiston. Get ready to travel the world, snort with laughter and — most of all — lose your heart to Poppy and Alex.

'Our generation's answer to Nora Ephron' — Sophie Cousens, This Time Next Year

'So warm and funny' — Paige Toon, The Minute I Saw You

'The hottest book of the summer - the pages simply sizzle!' — Josie Silver, One Night on the Island

'Emily Henry is my newest automatic-buy author... a heartfelt, funny, tender escape that you wish could last forever' — Jodi Picoult, Wish You Were Here

'A compulsively readable book full of sparkling wit, dazzling prose and a romance that grabbed me by the heart and wouldn't let me go' — Abby Jiminez, Part of Your World

'Funny, and seriously sizzling' — BEST

'If whipcrack banter and sexual tension is your catnip, you'll adore this book' — Sally Thorne, The Hating Game

'What an absolute flipping triumph of a novel!!! I LOVED it' — Emma Cooper, It Was Always You
