'Powerful and moving' RACHEL EDWARDS

'Very compelling, told with real depth and passion' 5* Reader Review

'Absolutely loved it' LUCY DIAMOND

Two families divided by hate

A love that will not die.

Sylvie and Donna travel on the same train to work each day but have never spoken. Their families are on different sides of the bitter Brexit divide, although the tensions and arguments at home give them much in common.

What they don't know is that their eldest children, Rachid and Jodie, are about to meet for the first time and fall in love. Aware that neither family will approve, the teenagers vow to keep their romance a secret.

But as Sylvie's family feel increasingly unwelcome in England, a desire for a better life threatens Rachid and Jodie's relationship. Can their love unite their families - or will it end in tragedy?

With brilliantly constructed characters whose happiness you ache for, In Little Stars is a powerful and thought-provoking triumph Mike Gayle
Wow, Green's original and powerful novel had me in absolute bits. Sad, thought-provoking, funny and beautifully written. You'll love it. I did. So much Louise Beech
Wow! I am so impressed by this book. It is outstanding . . . Fantastic characters, stunning story and the kind of poignancy that will make it stay with me for a very long time Susan Lewis
This book broke my heart. Powerful and devastating, In Little Stars is a must-read that throws light on some very real issues Charlotte Duckworth
A modern-day Alan Sillitoe: a love story in a world of prejudice and bias, told in the kind of authentic voices that we seldom hear Anstey Harris
Yet again, Linda Green reaches the parts that other authors don't reach. Romeo and Juliet in post-referendum Yorkshire in a story thrumming with lived experience Shelley Harris
A warm, wise and very moving book, which ultimately shows the power of love in bringing people together. A much needed story in our divided world Araminta Hall
Loved this book - a brilliantly poignant updating of Romeo and Juliet Frances Quinn
