Summary
Can one woman's marriage survive her best friend's divorce? Fans of Veronica Henry and Erica James, this is the next book to add to your reading list.
It's time to get back to where it all began....
Octavia Sheldon thought she'd have a different life. One where she travelled the world with an exotic husband and free-spirited children in tow. But things didn't turn out quite like that. Married to safe, reliable Jonathan, her life now consists of packed lunches, school runs, and more loads of dirty washing than she ever thought possible. She's not unhappy. It's just that she can barely recognise herself any longer.
So as Octavia watches her best friend's marriage break up, it starts her thinking. What if life could be different? What if she could escape and get back to the person she used to be? Escape back to the island where she spent her summers? And what if the man she used to love was there waiting for her...?

Good listen
Nice story but a misleading title and cover picture. Only quarter of the book set on an Island. But overall a good listen and would buy a Kerry Fisher book again.

Easy listening - "comfy" story
My first attempt at an audio book - and really enjoyed it - got lost in the main character's world - and felt could really get into the story more than if just reading it. A nice easy going story - with a bit of a kick - to keep you interested - and the ending not one you would have predicted. Believable and interesting - and whet my appetite for more audio books.

Another corker from Kerry
Kerry's ability to bring people to life is astonishing. Another great saga of family life.

For Kerry Fisher this was not one of her best
A good enjoyable storyline if perhaps happily predictable.
I love Kerry Fisher’s sense of humour but too much unnecessary swearing.
Very good narrator.
