About this listen

Should a woman be ready to forgive and forget to save her marriage? Roxy's not so sure... The riveting new novel from No. 1 bestselling author Sheila O'Flanagan. Perfect for fans of Marian Keyes and Kerry Fisher.

When Roxy comes home unexpectedly one day to give her husband Dave a lovely surprise, it's Roxy who gets shock of her life. And all she wants to do is run away.

Roxy knows she has to face up to what's happened and decide: forgive and forget, or bring an end to a decade-long marriage. Surely the right thing is to get over it - that's what Dave thinks. After all, it's just one mistake...

But Roxy finds it's not so simple. Especially when another secret starts to emerge. Her friends and family all know what they'd do - but they're not Roxy...

'One of my favourite authors' Marian Keyes

Good to listen to for company but not as enjoyable as her other novels wish their was an extra chapter to see if a new love interest happened to the leading Lady

Not as good as other novels by Sheila O'Flanagan

I struggled with Dave and I was frustrated by Roxy's patience with him. I loved Roxy's mother. Great characters.

enjoyed it!

It is more that I like a book that centres on noted than one key character. This was mostly about 1 person.

OK but not really my kind of story

Loved it

Good story, not terrible, but it was a bit too drawn out.
Although I admired her control and mental stamina, Roxy was too much of a pushover when it came to handling Dave and she internalised her anger and frustration too much which made me a bit frustrated as I read.
Roxy, her mum, friends and children are likeable and mostly relatable characters but I felt a bit ripped off with the ending which was too open ended for my liking.
First class narration once again by Aiofe McMahon.

A 'comfortable' read

Loved every second!

Great story and wonderful narration. Story of a woman choosing her own path. A semi love interest, balance if family life and dealing with her husband’s infidelity 💜

I'm not a big fan of novels written in first person. Perhaps that's influenced my overall thoughts about the story. I kept waiting for the part that would hook me in but for me, it never came. Added to that, it felt a bit like the conclusion wrapped up issues that had taken 11 hours to develop, in a 15 minute sprint to the end.

Overall, engaging enough that you keep listening but not so much that you can't put it down, or feel if you didn't know how the story continued, you'd be wishing you did.

Aoife McMahon is wonderful, as ever, with her narration, full of expression and interest as she reads.

Enjoyable, but for me, missing the wow factor
