About this audiobook
Fourteen letters, in my husband's handwriting.
I knew about three of them.
JUNIE
Everyone tells me how lucky I am.
Sixteen years ago Neil put down his career so that I could have mine. He has never complained about it, never thrown it in my face, never raised his voice in his life. At our anniversary party he stood up in front of eighty people and said he'd do it again tomorrow.
I smiled and let them all agree with him, and said nothing at all about the eight months I have been lying to him.
Then I went up into our loft looking for the boiler paperwork and found a box file with my name on it.
Fourteen enquiries. Fourteen jobs I was offered and never heard about. Fourteen replies in his handwriting — every one of them kind, every one of them signed on Junie's behalf.
NEIL
I spent sixteen years being the man who gave everything up. I was good at it. Everybody said so.
It took a box in a loft to show me what I'd actually been buying — and by then my wife was a hundred and ninety miles north, running the biggest project of her life, and I had no idea who she was any more.
Then she asked me for one thing.
Not an apology. Not another chance.
An engineer.
A deeply emotional story about a good man, a grateful wife, and the quiet damage of a kindness nobody ever asked for — for readers who want a marriage fought for properly, and a woman who will never again be decided for.
Closed-door. A standalone with a hard-won happy ending.
