Publisher's Summary

A perfect husband

To their friends, Lily and Freddy have a great marriage. He taught her to love again after the death of her first husband. But when Freddy becomes tense and distracted, a life-changing truth is revealed.

A terrible shock

Freddy has built up massive gambling debts that threaten to destroy not only his life, but Lily's as well.

Should she go forward - or back?

Her friends and family urge her to forget him and move on - easier said than done. Is her willingness to give him a second chance just down to loyalty? Or is the truth something altogether darker?

"Boyd is terrific at cutting to the quick of modern relationships." (Woman & Home)

What the critics say

"Warm-hearted and with a beady eye, Boyd gets under the skin of her characters to show that falling in love isn't limited to the young." (Sunday Express)

"Thoroughly enjoyable read...a real page turner. (Good Housekeeping)

"Boyd is as canny as Joanna Trollope at observing family life - and better than Trollope at jokes." (Daily Mail)
