Summary

Three women, connected by one man: Daniel is father to Seren, husband to Nesta and lover to Frankie. When he leaves Nesta and their beautiful home in the middle of the party to celebrate their fortieth wedding anniversary Seren's world begins to crumble.

Only the continuation of the family ideal can make things right. But Nesta isn't so sure. And for Frankie, Daniel offers hope of a safe and secure future. But all three women are carrying secrets that they've kept hidden even from those closest to them. Secrets that might even threaten a life.

Hugely enjoyable

Really enjoyable as family drama with strong romantic component that will appeal largely but not exclusively to female readers. The changing viewpoints provide depth to the unexpected separation of Daniel and Nesta. It affects their daughter Seren, too, who tries to find dirt on her father's new mistress, only to find surprises.
Quite slowly burning suspense builds up and comes to a crescendo.
I really enjoyed the characters in this novel and the impersonations by the narrator. Although I started this book in a busy period of my life, I raced through it, taking every opportunity to listen.
Most, I enjoyed the profound goodness of some of the characters and their admirable way to deal with bad situations in the right way. In our time of suing culture and increased self-involvement I found this book a refreshing reminder of human values, a cosy refuge with some amazing role models.
Pace and plotting are well handled and the narrator is making this a pleasure to read. Hugely enjoyable

A beautifully woven tale!

A thoroughly enjoyable, gripping and expertly paced story with well-developed characters, dramatic twists and turns along the way and ultimately heartwarming. After reading the author's excellent first book  'A Perfect Home', I needed an audiobook and this didn't disappoint. Will definitely be choosing more from this Author.

More than I bargained for

I liked the title of this audio book the most, unfortunately there wasn't much stargazing in its pages.
A slightly disturbing tale in places, with a general feeling or atmosphere of unease. Luckily I was able to fast forward most of the climax of the frightening bit, so I just about coped. This wasn't what I was expecting at all from the blurb and other reviews. Some aspects of the storyline are quite clever and all loose ends are tied up at the end.
