It Happened to Us

This is not my usual genre, but I’m glad I decided to give it a try. The characters are well written, dropping the reader into a snapshot of their family life with squabbles, domestic fallout and unrequited teenage love thrown into the mix.
It’s an involving read, pick it up and you won’t realise how easily you’ve gotten into it until you reach the end.

What happens to a happily married couple when a family tragedy hits them? In this nicely written and true to life novel, a husband and wife have opposite reactions and methods of coping so that, at a time when they need each other most, they are torn apart. I was attracted to this story because I know two couples to whom this actually happened. I sympathised with the main characters and read the book quickly as I found I wanted to know what became of them.
