From the Sunday Times bestselling author of Me Before You and the new 2023 novel Someone Else’s Shoes.
Liza McCullen will never escape her past. But the unspoilt beaches and tight-knit community of Silver Bay offer the freedom and safety she craves – if not for herself, then for her young daughter, Hannah.
Until Mike Dormer arrives as a guest in her aunt’s hotel, and the peace of Silver Bay is shattered. The mild-mannered Englishman with his too-smart clothes and disturbing eyes could destroy everything Liza has worked so hard to protect: not only the family business and the bay that harbours her beloved whales, but also her conviction that she will never love – never deserve to love – again.

Moyes is a romantic, and there is a gloriously happy ending, but the story is also surprising and genuinely moving.
Romance doesn't get much more topsy-turvy than this whale of a tale.
Engaging and poignant...Moyes writes both dialogue and descriptive passages with charm.
'This irresistible novel is told through the eyes of four women with their own hopes, fears and secrets.'
Gloriously entertaining
'Wonderfully romantic and moving.'
Fascinating read . . . not only is THE SHIP OF BRIDES utterly compelling, it's educational. In a good way.
