The Good Parts

An epic, unforgettable love story about a woman who takes a memory-erasing pill and the man she once loved who returns as a stranger, hoping to make her fall for him all over again--for fans of One Day and In Five Years.

"I tore through The Good Parts until its last page rendered me speechless. This is a staggering portrait of the pain and glory of enduring love, and a story you won't soon forget." --Carley Fortune, #1 New York Times bestselling author

She erased their past. He's rewriting their future.

When Landon receives a letter from Rose--the woman he once planned forever with--he learns their love story is over. She's undergone a radical memory-erasing treatment, leaving behind her grief, her past... and him. But Landon can't bear to lose the love of his life. If she fell for him once, couldn't she fall for him again?

Now living in Edinburgh, Rose's world is a blank canvas, and she's dating someone new. When Landon reenters her life as a stranger, they become fast friends, their lives entwining once more. But what Rose doesn't know is that this new friend carries the weight of everything they once shared: their firsts, their marriage, and the heartbreak they barely survived. And when she starts exhibiting strange symptoms, it becomes clear their history isn't gone--it's just buried. And remembering could come at a devastating cost.

Told in alternating timelines--his from the present, hers from the past--The Good Parts is an achingly poignant story about the people we become across a lifetime, and the beauty of finding our way with what remains.
