Description
A hilarious and insightful tale about a runaway husband from the internationally bestselling writer of smart, funny fiction.
At 44, Amy O'Connell thinks she's seen, heard or done it all. Until her husband Hugh announces he needs a break—from her. He is going backpacking for six months around Asia where he can do what he wants—and this is the scary bit—with anyone he wants.
WTAF? thinks Amy. What's she to do? Stay loyal to disloyal Hugh? Allow her ex-husband back into her life? Run away herself? And what about the children? A lot can happen in six months. Will Hugh return as the same man? And will she still be the same woman there waiting for him?
