Summary

Should a woman be ready to forgive and forget to save her marriage? Roxy's not so sure... The riveting new novel from No. 1 bestselling author Sheila O'Flanagan. Perfect for fans of Marian Keyes and Kerry Fisher.

When Roxy comes home unexpectedly one day to give her husband Dave a lovely surprise, it's Roxy who gets shock of her life. And all she wants to do is run away.

Roxy knows she has to face up to what's happened and decide: forgive and forget, or bring an end to a decade-long marriage. Surely the right thing is to get over it - that's what Dave thinks. After all, it's just one mistake...

But Roxy finds it's not so simple. Especially when another secret starts to emerge. Her friends and family all know what they'd do - but they're not Roxy...

'One of my favourite authors' Marian Keyes

Rainy day story

This is one that hooks you right from the start and draws you into Roxy’s story. You feel her anger and sense of betrayal, yet through it all her character grows and she develops a sense of who she really is and what she wants out of life. The husband, Dave, on the other hand’s character does not grow and he doesn’t learn from his mistake and indeed one feels that he’s still seeing the other woman. He seems to have an old fashion view women as wives of bedfellows- he blames the other woman and Roxy’s for his infidelity. He just wants to control things as he did before and resents Roxy’s new found independence. He seems to be a good father and a “good” man but comes across as an unreasonable husband, bulldozing his way over Roxy’s wishes. The end is a bit of a cliff hanger as you want to know what happens next!
I listened to this over 3 rainy days while cooking and doing the housework- it made the time fly pass!

Underwhelming

I had high hopes for this book when I listened to the first chapter. I was expecting scandal and gasps, but unfortunately I didnt get any of that. I feel like the story didnt ever really get going - nothing really happened. The main character felt almost robotic and 'vanilla' despite what she was going though. I didnt dislike the book altogether, but I certainly wouldn't say it was a page turner. The narrator had a lovely soothing tone to her voice though. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this book if you're after something to really get your teeth in to.
