Publisher's Summary

On the northeast side of town, there is a house.

The house was once magical, filled with love and joy and plans for the future. Inside its walls are many things that belong to me - my books, the china from my mother on my wedding day, the beautiful cage once home to two birds, now empty, just like me.

And a man. A man who also belongs to me. A man I no longer wish to keep. A man who, no doubt, has not slept, though the sun is rising. Because the house where he waits is where I laid my head to rest every night for eight years. Until last night.

No one who knows me would believe Charlie Pierce, the quiet, bookish girl who never made waves, is pulling out of the driveway of a man who isn’t her husband. But they don’t know me at all. I don’t even know me. Not anymore.

They say there are two sides to every story, and I suppose in most cases, that’s true. But the one I live inside of? It has three. 

On the northeast side of town, there is a house. But there is no longer a home.

A 5 STAR BLUSHING AUDIO REVIEW

This book literally gave me Goosebumps whilst reading, there are so many layers to peel back throughout the story each one twisting and embedding itself into me like I was part them.

I had no idea where the story was heading most the time, catching me by surprise whenever the plot changed direction without warning. I have not read many books that are from three POV’s and it left me torn between them, just when I thought I was batting for one team the rules changed and I would jump teams. My heart broke over and over again and then slowly Kandi put it back together again, she still left it feeling heavy and not quiet whole even up to the end.

My red puffy eyes have not yet recovered from this emotionally charged story. To say I loved it would not do it justice, I breathed in every word and felt every emotion throughout. This is not a feel good fluffy romance story, it is raw, it’s painful, it’s confronting but it’s also powerful and passionate and reflective.

There is a strong message in this duet and without disclosing any details it can be relevant and very relatable for anyone who has lost their way in a relationship or maybe unhappy in their marriage but still deeply love their partner, somewhere along the way it is easy to lose touch of what matters.
Kandi’s writing is addictive, it’s deep and perfectly executed. The story pulled me in from the very beginning and I become so invested in her world of passion, heart ache and self-discovery nothing else existed in my world whilst I was reading. I would switch from reading to the audio book if I had to hang washing or cook dinner because I simply couldn’t put it down.

I know the sensitive subject matter will deter a lot of people from reading this but I urge you to step past that comfort level and give this a go it certainly gives you another perspective after all they say there is always two sides to every story but this one has three.
Adding narration to this already emotionally charged book heightened that tenfold. The narrators did a perfect job of portraying their character’s personality traits and evoking emotions for the listener.
Sebastian York & Erin Mallon are favourite narrators of mine whereas Jason Clarke's a newbie for me but I loved him just as much. Each narrator was impeccably matched to their characters and they all did an outstanding performance.

Conflicted!

This Audiobook has left me so conflicted! I would happily listen to Sebastian York read the phone book, he can make the worst story entrancing for me. The story is brilliant, so all good right? Unfortunately the female narrator is so mind bogglingly annoying that I actually huffed aloud in disgust every time we returned to her.

Jason Clarke does a solid job which is a relief or this one would have been going straight back before Sebastian even murmered a syllable.

Now my predicament is; do I harumpf my way through listening to the next 2 installments wondering how on earth Erin Mallon has a job or do I read the next 2, thereby missing out on the dulcet tones of Mr York making the story all the more riveting?

Decisions, decisions :(
