A tipsy confession of infidelity during their engagement hadn’t been the best start to Sarah’s marriage. It had taken Paul O’Brian five years to propose, and even then he’d made only occasional guest appearances in Sarah’s bed – so how could he complain? Now, five years and one child later, Paul had decided it was time to cut their losses. What had happened to them? Weren’t they once the perfect couple? Thrown into a state of denial, then self-doubt, followed by determination not to go under without a fight, Sarah is catapulted into an unforgettable last year of being married.“Tucker tackles infidelity and sexual repression with aplomb” Mirror - E-bokEngelska, 2009
