I fell in love with Heath James when I was seventeen years old. Looking in from the outside, it seems like we have it all. A home we love, careers we both wanted, kids we adore. Now years later...I’m not so sure.
He used to look at me like I was everything he ever wanted–everything he needed and more. Now in our forties, it’s like he doesn’t see me at all.
Life happens.
Careers take off
Kids get busy
Couples grow apart
Walking away… Taking a break, was the hardest decision I’d ever made.
I’ve heard it said that you should never look back, life is always moving forward. To keep the past in the past. But what if I was wrong and my past has always been my future?
Is it too late for me to right my wrong?
Review
Whitney have been together and married for nearly two
decades. They have two kids and on the outside they have the perfect marriage,
the perfect life. But underneath the smiles and laughter is an undercurrent of
tension and despair. Whitney feels taken for granted and they have both lost
the passion they once had for each other. Heath is focused on his business
since going on his own but he keeps his troubles away from Whitney, not much
for talking out his worries he doesn’t realise the impact this is having on his
marriage. When something happens as a business awards dinner, Whitney feels she
has no choice but to leave and take stock of her life and if this will continue
to be with Heath.
Whilst Whitney is finding herself again and striking up new
friendships, Heath is coming to realise what he is in danger of losing. When
something happens to bring it all to a head, could it be too late.
This was a good storyline overall but was very low angst but
had the potential to be so much more with added drama. At the end I didn’t feel
that the original problems had been fully resolved, however it was good to end
in a happy place.
I loved Liam in the storyline and in fact I enjoyed the
parts he was in it the most. Hopefully he will get his own story soon, he
sounds lush!
An engaging read about real life struggles between a couple
which overall I enjoyed (and no cheating!). 3.5 stars rounded up to 4.
