    About this audiobook

    ‘Brilliant! Cuts to the heart yet powerfully uplifting’ Jane Corry

    Her love for her daughter is everything

    Her love for him is deadly

    Cath had twenty-five perfect days with her newborn daughter before Mia's deadly illness was diagnosed.

    As her life implodes, Cath’s despair drives her to a parental support group where she meets a father in a similar situation, the dangerously attractive Richard – charming, handsome and adamant that a cure for their children lies just over the horizon: everything Cath wants to believe.

    Their affair – and the chance to escape reality – is unavoidable, but carries catastrophic consequences: the nature of Mia’s illness means that Cath’s betrayal endangers not just her marriage but the life of her baby.

    Can she stop herself before it’s too late?

      My cashier’s black hair was beautiful. Though not unlike mine, it was shinier and thicker, and hung glamorously down to her waist. It looked strong, too, like Christopher Reeve’s in the Superman movies. A strand of Superman’s silvery hair could hold

      Good but I was expecting something different. It wasn't a great book and the main character had too many flaws to relate to her.
