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.

From the outside looking in, 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 24th wedding anniversary, Lauren makes a decision that will change everything.

Lauren won’t pretend things are perfect anymore. She defies the controlling husband who has privately 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.

The book is like a slow cooked homemade stew that tastes really good at the end. Having been through much myself, I could relate and enjoy a story like this now better than some years ago.

It’s how life can be

I picked up this book as I needed a nice story to listen to while knitting. I was intrigued by the main character asking for a divorce after so many years of marriage. Great love story full of twists and the characters are very likeable apart from Brad and Pamela. I will listen to more books by this author.

What a great story with so many twists

Enjoyed this book. Love Robyn Carr but first audio book of hers I've listened too. Will probably listen to more and read more too. Listening great for getting jobs done but not so good if you can't put the book down! Ended up wearing headphones around the house constantly. listening to a second time around love story.

Enjoyable

It's not my usual genre. It was a bit I don't know... Innocent...nice...
But that said it addressed an important issue well.
We could all use a Beau in our lives but hate the name!

Not bad
