Synopsis

THE HEARTBREAKING AND POWERFUL NOVEL FROM NO.1 BESTSELLING AUTHOR JANE GREEN

When Gabby first met Elliott she knew he was the man for her.

In twenty years of marriage she has never doubted her love for him - even when he refused to give her the one thing she still wants most of all.

But now their two daughters are growing up Gabby feels that time and her youth are slipping away.

And then she meets Matt . . .

Intoxicated by the way this young, handsome and successful man makes her feel, Gabby is momentarily blind to what she stands to lose on this dangerous path.

And in one reckless moment she destroys all that she holds dear.

Consumed by regret, Gabby does everything she can to repair the home she has broken. But are some betrayals too great to forgive?
