Extract from Other People's Husbands by Elizabeth Noble

Today it's our stop on the blog tour for Other People's Husbands by Elizabeth Nobel which Emma reviewed here. I also have an extract from Chapter 1 to share with you but first a little about the book.   

Sometimes friendship crosses a line . . .

A group of close friends, their bonds forged at the nursery gates two decades ago, have celebrated, commiserated and grown together: they thought they all knew each other so well.

Until the affair.

Now a crack appears in everything.

Could one betrayal really destroy it all?

Book Links: Kindle or Paperback

It felt, to her, like she’d been initiated today. She was in this club. They were all founder members. If she was honest with herself, even though this was May and she’d known these people since the previous September, she’d had imposter syndrome almost up until this weekend. She wasn’t, couldn’t be, entirely sure she and Phil belonged with this gilded group. They were very ordinary people. She’d always thought so. It wasn’t pejorative. At least, she didn’t mean it to be. Not dull, she’d hoped, but ordinary nonetheless. She’d had what were almost crushes on these women she’d met at the nursery and school gates, and slowly, carefully, got to know over the last few months.

Books Read: Elizabeth Noble - Between a Mother and her Child

Source - Received from publisher to review

For Maggie and Bill it was love at first sight ...

One impulsive wedding later, and with the arrival of three perfect children - Jake, Aly and Stan - the Barrett family seems to have it all.  Until the day their world stops turning.

When Jake dies suddenly, they're swept away on a tide of grief that fractures Maggie and Bill's marriage.  She and the children are left clinging to the wreckage of their family.  And they need help, because in her grief Maggie is in danger of losing Aly and Stan too.

Enter Kate: housekeeper, companion and shoulder to cry on.  She's here to pick up the pieces and fix what isn't completely broken.  But can Maggie trust Kate?  And why is Kate so keen to help

When Bill falls for another woman, Maggie realizes she will have to fight to put her family back together - but will they still want her?
