      Tridsaťročnej šarmantnej učiteľke angličtiny Anne Emmersonovej ponúknu prácu na leto. Má doučovať TíDžeja Callahana v prenajatom domčeku na Maldivách, kde ho už čakajú rodičia. Ponuku bez zaváhania prijme, pretože si bude užívať more a zároveň pracovať. Šestnásťročnému TíDžejovi sa, naopak, z Chicaga nechce, no nikto sa ho na to nepýta. Práve zvíťazil nad onkologickým ochorením a rád by strávil prázdniny s kamarátmi, no namiesto toho musí dobiehať zameškané učivo. Na Maldivách Annu a TíDžeja čaká posledný úsek cesty – dvojhodinový let hydroplánom ponad Indický oceán. Pilot však náhle dostane infarkt a lietadlo sa zrúti do vody. Dvom cestujúcim zachránia život záchranné vesty a do rána doplávajú na neobývaný ostrov. Anna s Tídžejom sú odhodlaní stoj čo stoj prežiť, no dennodenne čelia mnohým ťažkostiam. Hoci veľa užitočných vecí sa ako zázrakom zachránilo z trosiek lietadla, nemajú pitnú vodu, jedlo, oheň, obydlie. Čaká ich prírodná katastrofa, tropické búrky, nebezpečenstvo na nich striehne aj z mora. Dni sa menia na týždne, z týždňov sa stávajú mesiace. Hrozí možnosť, že TíDžejovi sa vráti rakovina. Počas oslavy narodenín na ostrove si Anna uvedomí, že sa vynára ďalší problém: dokáže na ostrove žiť s chlapcom, ktorý sa postupne mení na muža?

      From Tracey Garvis Graves, the bestselling author of The Girl He Used to Know comes a love song of a story about starting over and second chances in Heard It in a Love Song. Love doesn’t always wait until you’re ready. Layla Hilding is thirty-five and recently divorced. Struggling to break free from the past—her glory days as the lead singer in a band and a ten-year marriage to a man who never put her first—Layla’s newly found independence feels a lot like loneliness. Then there's Josh, the single dad whose daughter attends the elementary school where Layla teaches music. Recently separated, he's still processing the end of his twenty-year marriage to his high school sweetheart. He chats with Layla every morning at school and finds himself thinking about her more and more. Equally cautious and confused about dating in a world that favors apps over meeting organically, Layla and Josh decide to be friends with the potential for something more. Sounds sensible and way too simple—but when two people are on the rebound, is it heartbreak or happiness that’s a love song away?
