Results May Vary

Summary: She never saw it coming. Without even a shiver of suspicion to warn her, Caroline Hammond discovers that her husband is having an affair with a man—a revelation that forces her to question their entire history together, from their early days as high school sweethearts through their ten years as a happily married couple. In her now upside-down world, Caroline begins envisioning her life without the relationship that has defined it: the loneliness of being an “I” instead of a “we”; the rekindled yet tenuous closeness with her younger sister; and the unexpected—and potentially disastrous—attraction she can’t get off her mind. Caroline always thought she knew her own love story, but as her husband’s other secrets emerge, she must decide whether that story’s ending will mean forgiving the man she’s loved for half her life, or facing her future without him.

Traveling With T’s Thoughts:

The book cover had me thinking- fun, fluffy, cute. However, Bethany Chase’s cover may make you think fun and fluffy, but this book has emotional grit.

Honestly, it was hard for my brain to get on the train with this book being emotionally gritty at times. I kept thinking “Where’s the fluff?” But the more I read, the more I became invested in Caroline. Caroline could be selfish at times (see some of her sisterly interactions) BUT she’s been dealt a major life change- so I could sorta understand.

I thought the characters were fully fleshed out and the story had some life lessons about love for all readers. There is also a reminder to be true to yourself, to love yourself!

Bottom Line: This book has more emotional grit than I expected and will make a great choice for book clubs who are looking for women’s fiction with more depth.
