One Moment

By: Becky Hunter

Narrated by: Heather Long

This heart-wrenching read about friendship, love, and loss tells the story of a woman grieving the death of her best friend and learning to embrace a future she never imagined—perfect for fans of Rebecca Serle and Josie Silver.

The day Scarlett dies, her hopes and dreams for the future die with her . . . or so she thinks. Because she’s still here—wherever here is—watching the ripple effect of her death on the lives of those she loved the most. She’d do anything to go back and join the living.

Evie can’t imagine life without her best friend, Scarlett, and she certainly doesn’t want to forgive Nate, the man she blames for her death. Yet Nate keeps showing up in her life—so charming and outgoing, just like Scarlett—when all Evie wants is to retreat from the world.

But Evie’s not alone. Scarlett is still by her side, even as she wrestles with the choices that led to that fateful day. Knowing what she knows now, would Scarlett go back and alter the events that changed their lives forever?
