About this listen

'An engaging, emotionally-charged and intriguing story' Michelle Gorman

Two decades on from a passionate courtship and marriage, Lucas and Esther are getting divorced.

For Esther, it’s proving hard not to feel bitter watching Lucas enjoying his successful career, not to mention the attentions of his gorgeous, intelligent, and predictably younger lover. She meanwhile is struggling to forge a new life for herself, navigating the pitfalls of modern dating, while trying not to despair at the cost of living as a single woman of a certain age.

Then Lucas faces a shattering accusation at the same time as their children Dylan and Lily, start to implode. When Dylan runs away, and as his father fights to save his reputation, Lucas and Esther find themselves back in each other’s lives, whether they like it or not.

Has too much water passed under the bridge, or will long-forgotten loyalties and feelings bring the family back together, just when they need each other the most?

A brilliant, heartfelt story of family dynamics, perfect for fans of Liane Moriarty and Sally Hepworth

If you want to lose yourself in a cracking story, this is it.

Real characters with real life challenges. Don’t pass this up, if you want to get away from negative news and misery. It’s not twee, it’s wonderful.

not for me

Really struggled to finish it! The narrator was brilliant. She made it very easy to identify each of the characters. The story could have been completed in half the time.

Disappointing

An ok read but I struggled with connecting with any of the characters in this tale and therefore found the storyline fragmented, superficial and unrealistic. Romance at the expense of depth.
