Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 11 24, 2013
Gavin Fitzgerald and his wife Emma have been married for five blissful years. Then while Gavin was away on a three day business trip he cheats. Filled with remorse and guilt he confesses to Emma hoping she can forgive him. He tells her it meant nothing. Emma's reaction and subsequent attitude towards him is nothing more than he expected, but as the time passes by and Emma's forgiveness isn't forthcoming Gavin starts to lose patience. Mostly because there's more to Gavin's story than he first let on.A revealing and realistic account into a couple whose perfect marriage is marred by the husbands cheating. With alternating POV we gain insight into Gavin's lopsided reasoning as to why he did what he did. It was amazing to see how he didn't think that his wife wouldn't be totally devastated. So what he ended up doing was hurting the person he loved most in the world. Emma's struggle to come to terms with what Gavin has done was emotional to read. Of course there's a whole lot more to Gavin's story but I don't want to give anything away. Not my usual sort of read, but it was certainly unputdownable.
