The Love Of My Life – Rosie Walsh
Emma is married to Leo
and together they have a young daughter Ruby who they both adore. They are a
perfect family unit…or are they? Almost everything that Emma has told Leo about
her life is a lie!
When Emma suffers a
serious illness, Leo, an obituary writer for a newspaper, copes by doing what
he knows best – researching and writing about his wife’s life. But as he starts
to unravel the truth, he discovers the woman he loves doesn’t really exist.
Even her name isn’t real.
When the very darkest moments of Emma’s past
finally emerge, she must somehow prove to Leo that she really is the woman he
always thought she was . . .
But first, she must tell him about the other love
of her life.
This book for me was a
slow burner – up until 50% of the way through I couldn’t quite engage with it –
we knew from the get go that there were secrets in Emma’s life and I wanted
things to start unravelling, and in my opinion it took too long for the reader
to get to that point. I love Rosie Walsh’s books, so I stuck with it, but I’m
not sure if a new reader would.
Saying all that, once
we got past the half way mark, boy were we on a journey together!!
