Meet Anna Walsh.

Lying in her parents' Good Front Room, covered in bandages, Anna dreams of leaving Dublin and returning to her beloved New York.

To her home. To her job. And most of all to her husband Aidan.

Unfortunately, her family have other ideas. She's staying put. And Aidan? He's refusing to even take her calls.

The last thing Anna wants is to think about how she ended up in this mess. But with nothing else to do, she's forced to ask herself why she's thousands of miles from the life she loves.

Where did it all go wrong? And can she fix it, before it's too late?

LOVE FOR MARIAN KEYES:

'Will make you laugh and make you cry, but will also reveal the truth of who you really are' Louise O'Neill
'Keyes weaves the joy and pain of life in a unique and magical way' Cathy Rentzenbrink
'One of the most honest writers writing today' Pandora Sykes

What happened to Anna to send her so far from all that she loves? And what happened to her marriage that her husband won't talk to her?
