Thank you so so much to Paige Toon for sending me a copy of this one in exchange for an honest review! I would have preferred less time taken up with the ‘then’ chapters (the teenage years) as at times it read very much like a YA book, with lots of detail about school which I feel too old for. Parts of the final chapters were quite cheesy too. However, I guess we can all cope with a helping of romance now & again & all in all it was an enjoyable summery read. An interview with international bestselling author Paige Toon on her heartbreaking, romantic and utterly compelling new novel, IF YOU COULD GO ANYWHERE.A beautiful story about love and family and healing broken hearts. It swept me up and wouldn’t let me go – I loved it’ BETH O’LEARY

Paige also did an amazing job describing some of the realities of the foster care system ... positives and negatives! Shifting between the past and the present, this is a heart wrenching tale of first love and second chances. The research for this was eye opening. I hadn't fully understood the amazing job that foster parents and those that adopt go through. It broke my heart at times. An inspiring, unforgettable, incredibly special story.
