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?
Praise for Amanda Brookfield: 'An engaging, emotionally-charged and
intriguing story' Michelle Gorman No one gets to the heart of human
relationships quite so perceptively as Brookfield.' The Mirror
'Unputdownable. Perceptive. Poignant. I loved it.' bestselling
author Patricia Scanlan on Before I Knew You 'If Joanna Trollope is
the queen of the Aga Saga, then Amanda Brookfield must be a strong
contender for princess.' Oxford Times What readers are saying about
Amanda Brookfield: 'I felt so involved in this story that I found
myself thinking about it a lot during the day. A fantastic read.
Gripping, moving, characters you care about, highly recommend.'
'Packed with suspense, (I actually held my breath during some of
the scenes) and full of relatable characters, this book will draw
you in from the first page. Highly recommend.' 'The tension builds
on every page, the characters, as always with this author's books,
are drawn beautifully. I couldn't put it down and am looking
forward greatly to Amanda Brookfield's next offering hopefully
before too long!' 'Brookfield is undoubtedly one of Britain's
foremost chroniclers of human relationships. It goes without saying
that this novel is another page turner - guaranteed to make you
read the last 50 pages before sleep, even though you know you have
an early start in the morning - but it is much, much more.'
