Adam Basil and Christine Rose are thrown together late one night, when Christine is crossing the Halfpenny Bridge in Dublin. Adam is there, poised, threatening to jump. Adam is desperate – but Christine makes a crazy deal with him. His 35th birthday is looming and she bets him she can show him that life is worth living before then.
Despite her determination, Christine knows what a dangerous promise she’s made. Against the ticking of the clock, the two of them embark on wild escapades, grand romantic gestures and some unlikely late-night outings. Slowly, Christine thinks Adam is starting to fall back in love with his life.
But has she done enough to change his mind for good? And is that all that’s starting to happen?

What I loved about this story...
Cecelia Ahern is one of favourite authors of all time, so I was highly anticipating this book and had very high hopes, that were not disappointed at all. The story started off on a bad note with both characters, Christine and Adam, are in low places in their lives.
What I enjoyed the most was the character progression throughout the story. The journeys that both Christine and Adam took through the story where they go through sadness in certain ways, having to face up to difficulties and seeing what they do next kept me mesmerised throughout the story.
What I was not fond of with this story...
Absolutely nothing, LOVED this book....

This sounds wonderful. I really really like If You Could See Me Now, and I've been wanting to read another one by Cecelia Ahern. The fact that you had a hard time summarizing this one for fear of spoilers has me SO curious! I will have to pick this one up. Great review!
