Description

🇺🇸 US Only
Can one woman’s marriage survive her best friend’s divorce? Emily Giffin meets Jennifer Weiner in this summer’s must-have read.


What if there was somewhere you could disappear to?

Octavia Shelton thought she’d have a different life. One where she travelled the world with an exotic husband and free-spirited children in tow.

Instead, she’s married to safe, reliable Jonathan, and her life now consists of school pick-ups and mountains of dirty laundry. She’s not unhappy. It’s just that she can barely recognise herself.

So as Octavia watches her best friend’s marriage break up, it gets her thinking. What if life could be different? What if she could escape and rediscover the person she used to be? Escape back to the island she visited years ago? And what if the man she used to love was there waiting for her?

Read what everyone is saying about Kerry Fisher:

Well written and pacey, stuffed full of characters you’ll warm to and a couple you won’t, and a thoroughly enjoyable experience.’ Daily Mail

‘I laughed out loud…well written and witty.’ Novelicious
The pages flew by I was so engaged.’ Crooks on Books

‘A beautifully light and engaging read with dark, rich tones…the perfect companion to escape from reality with for a few hours’ Love Reading

I love novels where the characters are feisty, funny and flawed which Kerry Fisher's female leads most definitely are! A great read and one I'd thoroughly recommend!’ Claire Dyer, author of ‘The Perfect Affair’

‘Ms Fisher is a remarkable author with a unique voice, and one I would certainly watch out for.’This Chick Reads

‘Kerry is such a keen observer of human behaviour, interaction and relationship. And her characters crackle.’ Amanda Jennings, author of ‘The Judas Scar’

The story gallops along, taking the reader with it. Many sections are funny, with real laugh out loud lines, and other moments are poignant. Highly recommended.’ Vicky Newham

‘I really found this book compulsive reading, eager to find out what was happening next with Kerry’s writing which was inviting and down to earth.’ Rachel’s Reads

‘Kerry is one I will look out for again’ Annie’s Book Corner
