Description

When Alice accepts a proposal from the charming and wealthy Joe, she believes she's found her happily-ever-after—complete with the country life she's always dreamed of. But marriage quickly reveals a different reality, as Joe's true nature emerges and shatters her romantic ideals. When an unexpected indiscretion forces them to leave their old life behind, Alice and Joe relocate to a country house in Connecticut, where they must confront the gap between their expectations and the messy reality of married life. Jane Green's compelling exploration of love, commitment, and self-discovery examines what happens when the fairy tale fades and couples must decide whether to rebuild or walk away. A poignant and relatable tale about the complexities of modern marriage and the courage it takes to reclaim your own happiness.
