About this audiobook
There is an egg timer on the marriage counselor's table, and Kira Sorne cannot stop looking at it.
Three minutes. That is how long each of them gets to tell the truth while the other one has to sit there and take it — no defending, no explaining, no smoothing it over. Marguerite sets the sand running, and in that small ticking quiet Kira has to decide whether she can do the most dangerous thing a wronged woman is ever asked to do: walk straight back into the room that gutted her, and try.
Fourteen years married. One late, devastating loss that hollowed them both into a silent, careful year. And then — while Kira was drowning in a grief that was only ever theirs — Elliot reached past her for someone else. A real affair. Three months. A coworker named Danae and a string of afternoons Kira knew nothing about until the day she knew everything.
Now they are separated, and this counseling is the last thing they are trying before the lawyers. Kira is done being lied to. She will not risk her heart again on a promise; she'll risk it only on proof — and Elliot, a man who has spent his whole life keeping the peace and avoiding every hard feeling, is finally being asked to do the one thing he has never once managed: stay. Sit inside the worst of it. Stop managing her pain and simply let her have it. Tell the truth when the truth costs him everything.
Because a second chance was never a gift somebody hands you. It's a dare. And whether Kira takes it — whether the sand ever runs out on the old marriage and starts fresh on a new, honest one — is a decision that belongs to her, and to her alone, in her own time.
An emotional, deeply honest contemporary second-chance romance about a real affair, a marriage on the table, and the brutal, tender work of rebuilding trust one timed truth at a time. A husband's genuine reckoning (no excuses, no blaming her grief), a wife who refuses to compete for her own worth, a humanized other woman, shared loss carried with care, and a heroine who reclaims her own time and decides — entirely on her terms — what a second chance is worth. Full-length novel with a guaranteed happily-ever-after.
