Sinossi
Per Maggie, madre single da dieci anni, il matrimonio con Nico è un sogno. Anche perché finalmente farà parte di una vera, grande famiglia. Suo marito infatti vive nella casa di fronte a quella del fratello Massimo e a pochi passi dalla madre, considerata da tutti il loro nume tutelare. Eppure è proprio lei ad accogliere Maggie con estrema freddezza. Perché Caitlin, la prima moglie, era più sofisticata, più bella e certamente più adatta a Nico. Maggie se lo sente ripetere così tante volte che inizia quasi a crederci. Finché non trova un fascio di lettere nascoste in soffitta, lettere scritte a Caitlin da un uomo che non era suo marito. E allora cambierà ogni cosa…
L’immagine che tutti hanno di Massimo e Lara è quella di una coppia solida e felice, amorevoli genitori del figlio Sandro. Eppure dietro l’apparenza si celano ombre che Lara non ha il coraggio di condividere con nessuno. Almeno fino a quando non arriva Maggie, la nuova cognata. Potrebbe essere lei la chiave per evadere dalla prigione del suo matrimonio…

Recensioni
Oh my, where do I begin ?!?! I absolutely loved this book!! You know it's an extraordinary story, when you don't want it to end. The characters are so well presented that you actually feel you are part of the family - some you love, some that irritate you, others that make you laugh while still othe Leggi tutto
What a great, very different, novel this is! Welcome to the Farinelli family from Brighton - it has a great collection of characters who are brought to life in the pages of this story, some of whom you’ll love but others you’ll definitely not! There’s the domineering, strident Italian Mama, a real ma Leggi tutto
Beautifully written and heart-wrenching. The ending left tears in my eyes. I was completely engrossed in this book and couldn't stop turning pages. It's a very absorbing story about love and family. A reminder that the "perfect couple" (you know the one) you envy isn't always as perfect as they seem Leggi tutto
Well I am afraid this was nothing like I had hoped it would be ! Gripping ? Emotional ? Unexpected twists ? Nope, sorry, it was a decent family saga type book , nothing more in my view. The characters, especially the men, were stereotypes and the plot had more holes than a Swiss cheese ! Some of the Leggi tutto
The Silent Wife was a really exciting and enjoyable read. As at today (Sunday 9th April 2017) this book is sitting in #1 spot for family sagas on Amazon UK and #2 in others. It's a bestseller! This book really has some characters that make the book strong - those that are in the light, and those tha Leggi tutto
This book wasn't gripping, or a page-turner, it was tedious. I kept going because it promised "a twist that would take (my) breath away" but I'm still not sure what the twist was. Apart from the lack of real drama there were some lazy inconsistencies: a character speaking in the first person who was Leggi tutto
My reviews can also be found at www.noveldeelights.com Can a review consist of just some incoherent gibberish to show how much you’ve loved a book? How about a Kermit flail? No? Because quite frankly, I’m not at all sure how I’m supposed to put into words the emotional rollercoaster I’ve been on foll Leggi tutto
