How do you move forward when part of your heart is still living in the past?
After a heartbreaking accident shatters her world, Emily is left to pick up the pieces of a life she no longer recognises. Numb with grief, she sleepwalks through art college before seizing the chance to leave England behind and begin a new career as a designer in the vibrant 1990s New York fashion industry.
New York promises everything Emily longs for—a fresh start, creative freedom and the opportunity to become someone new. Through friendships, unforgettable adventures and a series of relationships that each leave their mark, from a French trust-fund banker and an ambitious journalist to Adam, a Harvard graduate, and Kieran, the bookseller, Emily searches for the place, the person and the love that will finally make her feel whole.
Yet beneath the excitement of city life lies a quiet ache. No success, romance or reinvention can silence the grief she has buried so deeply or the persistent feeling that she doesn't quite belong.
Thirty years later, during yoga teacher training, Emily meets an energy worker who encourages her to release the stories she has carried for decades. As she begins to let go of the past, an unexpected reunion with Adam forces her to confront a powerful truth: love that has shaped us is never truly lost—it simply waits to be rediscovered.
Told through beautifully crafted episodic vignettes, where memories are awakened by the evocative power of scent, All Our Yesterdays moves effortlessly between past and present. Warm, witty, poignant and deeply cathartic, it explores grief, love, identity and the remarkable resilience of the human heart.
Perfect for readers of contemporary women's fiction, literary fiction, and emotionally rich novels about second chances, healing, self-discovery, 1990s New York, the fashion industry, and personal transformation, All Our Yesterdays is a moving reminder that we cannot truly embrace tomorrow until we make peace with yesterday.
For anyone who has loved deeply, lost painfully, or wondered whether it's ever too late to begin again, this is a story that will stay with you long after the final page.
