Description

A poignant and powerful story about how one woman’s best intentions lead to the worst of situations and how love helps her to heal and ultimately triumph.

Lauren Delaney has a life to envy—a successful career, a solid marriage to a prominent surgeon and two beautiful daughters who are off to good colleges. But on her twenty-fourth wedding anniversary Lauren makes a decision that will change everything.

Lauren won’t pretend anymore. She defies the controlling husband who has mistreated her throughout their marriage and files for divorce. And as she starts her new life, she meets a kindred spirit—a man who is also struggling with the decision to end his unhappy marriage.

But Lauren’s husband wants his “perfect” life back and his actions are shocking. Facing an uncertain future, Lauren discovers an inner strength she didn’t know she had as she fights for the love and happiness she deserves.

Don't miss Robyn Carr's next uplifting novel, The Friendship Club, where four women come together at a tumultuous time in their lives, forging an unbreakable bond that will leave them all forever changed—available January 2024!

A story of failed marriages & new beginnings. It starts off slow but then gathers pace to a great finale. Loved everything about it

Robyn Carr can surely write books that keep you hooked till the last page.
I loved this heartwarming book about second chances and changes.
I loved the setting, the characters and found the book engaging and entertaining.
It's a very good specimen of women's fiction that hooks you since the first pages and never bores or let you down.
I read other books by this writer but this is one of those I liked most.
Highly recommended!
Many thanks to Harlequin-Mira and Netgalley for this ARC

I absolutely loved this story about second chances, mistakes and family.
Two of the worst divorces I've ever read about bring together a couple who are perfect for each other. The war stories will keep you on the edge of your seat.
Their friends and families round out this eclectic cast of characters joyfully.
Strongly recommend.
