THE WIFE WHO RAN AWAY
Fiction (Novel) 323 pages

Kate feels invisible. If she served her affable husband dinner stark naked, he wouldn't notice. Her two charming toddlers have grown into stroppy teenagers who only speak to her when they want something. Her boss is suddenly shunting her towards career Siberia, and her demanding mother is never off the phone. With her 40th birthday fast approaching, all Kate wants to do is run away from the whole damn lot of them.
And one day, she does. On impulse, Kate walks out of her job, her family and her life, and gets on a plane to Italy. With no ties and no responsibilities, she soon finds herself deliriously caught up in La Dolce Vita - and the arms of a man barely half her age. But when the unthinkable threatens her family, Kate is brutally forced to choose between her past and the future. Can she ever truly escape the ties that bind? And does she really want to? -
