'A fabulous tale with refreshingly inspiring heroines' * Heat

Sheila O'Flanagan is the bestselling author of The Missing Wife and My Mother's Secret, and her new bestseller What Happened That Night, with its enticing story of mothers, daughters, and lovers, will enchant readers who love the novels of Marian Keyes and Lisa Jewell.

Lola has a plan. She's going to escape the village she grew up in and make it in the big city. She's smart enough - but she's also headstrong. When, one evening, she has to make a life-changing choice, she decides quickly and without the full facts. But there's no way back.

Bey is every bit her mother's daughter. An impulsive decision puts her in the path of great danger. She's left wary of trusting her own judgement ever again. Then, one night, she's standing in front of the man she loves, with her own choice to make.

For both women, everything changes in a moment. But their biggest mistakes might also turn out to be their greatest opportunities...
