MEET ANDREW.

Everybody likes Andrew. But they don't really know him. They know what he's told them - that he's happily married with two kids. Living the kind of life that's either so boring it's true, or so perfect it's a lie...

ENTER PEGGY.

Peggy arrives in Andrew's life in a burst of kindness and possibility. For the first time in ages, Andrew feels alive again. So now that he has everything to lose, can he risk it all and tell Peggy the truth?

This book is utterly brilliant! It gives a great insight into how lives intersect and how they impact. It has a great underlying theme of friendship. At time’s it becomes very dark and heartbreaking but it’s an important story to tell. Absolutely loved it!
