What happens when the life you've built collides with the life you never expected?
Louise thought a trip from Helsinki to Stockholm with her best friend Marja would be a simple getaway. But when she meets Mat, a charming stranger who reignites her passion, everything changes. A whirlwind romance follows, forcing Louise to rethink everything she believed about love and loyalty.
Meanwhile, back in Ireland, her on-again, off-again boyfriend Sean has finally made up his mind-Louise is the one, and he's heading to Finland for the holidays to prove it.
Over the course of a year, Louise's life in Finland and Ireland unfolds with unexpected twists, leaving her to confront a life-altering decision: where does her heart truly belong, and which man-and country-can she call home?
Me There With You Then is a love story, but it's also a story about best friends, mothers and daughters, and the heart-wrenching choices that shape our lives.
"Edie Browning's new release, Me There With You Then, is a fabulous prequel to her debut Me Here Without You Now, as Edie shows us how Louise and Mat first met. Louise remains a hugely engaging character - we feel with her the dilemmas she faces over Mat in Finland and Sean in Ireland, the book's two vivid settings; share with her the pleasure and pain of her new friendship with Marja and the ups and downs of her relationship with her mother. I was constantly rooting for Louise to find success and, most of all, happiness and wanted more as this part of her story drew to a close. This is a book which will grab your heart from the start and squeeze it again and again. Highly recommended, whether you start there then or with Me Here Without You Now. When's the third installment, Edie Browning?!" - Jennifer Burkinshaw, author of Igloo and Happiness Seeker.
