This is an impossible love story…
Cooper came home unexpectedly early that day. The day her world collapsed. The day she heard things she shouldn’t have. Saw things she shouldn’t have.
Now Cooper is running away. Driving recklessly. Blindly. A broken heart spiralling out of control after witnessing an earth-shattering scene.
Then Cooper discovers the website. Speaks to the doctors. Can they help her? Can they give her the treatment she desperately wants? Yes they can. They can do something mind-blowing.
They can surgically erase her love for her husband Jethro.
Only what appears to be the perfect solution sets off a devastating chain of events not only for Jethro and herself. But one also involving their teenage son Daniel in ways she can’t imagine.
A life-shattering moment. A rash decision. An easy solution. This isn’t just a love story. Not when a heart isn’t just broken, it is irreversibly silenced.
This is an impossible love story.
Firstly thank you to Love Books Tours, Paul Indigo and Random World Media for having me on the tour and sending me a copy of the book to review. For once there will be spoilers in my review! You have been warned!
Well, I have yet to listen to too many audiobooks and I do love giving them a try because often it's not the story that makes or breaks it but the narrator. And I have to say I did really like the narrator for this one, she had a really easygoing way of reading the book and it made it easy to get lost in.
I really enjoyed hearing the majority of the book from Cooper's point of view, it meant that we were with her finding out about Jethro and how he didn't cheat and the ripple effects of what she chose to do and so then it was good to switch to Jetheros POV and carry the fallout that way. I can't believe Daniel thought it was acceptable to have sex in his parent's bed, i mean his own bedroom was next door for Christ's sake!
I loved that we got the 12 years later jump forward in Cooper and Jethro's story and i really didn't see him having the treatment because of how he was so against it but I love that he did because it gave them that chance to start anew.
Eddsy and Harriets' story was a nice interlude popping in and out just at the right times and i really liked that they ended up adopting and how they ended up wanting the same thing but through lack of communication weren't on the same page about their feelings. It was another good example of lack of communication in marriage but without the extreme outcome that Cooper and Jethro ended up with to start.
If I'm honest i could have done without the podcast/interview sections, i didn't like them and i get that they were meant to give background to the process but i really didn't feel they were needed.
Overall it was a good book to listen too, i really enjoyed it.
