Book Description
I stared at the cordless phone, my hand shaking, my pulse echoing in my ears. I walked slowly to the kitchen counter, staring out the window as Ceci swung back and forth on the swing. For the first time in as long as I could remember, I had no idea what to do next. When the woman from the hospital tells me that my husband Drew is in a coma my world comes crashing down. He should have been making his way home, but instead I'm shocked when I find out that he tried to end his own life. I know I have to keep things together and hold on to the idea that this is all one big mistake. I remind myself of how Drew's face would light up whenever he read to our children cuddled up on the sofa. From the moment I met him he'd ensured that we had the best of everything, that our children would never lose out like I did when I was growing up. He would never do such a terrible thing to us. But as my family rallies around to help, it becomes clear that Drew's sister Gemma knows a shocking secret that my devoted husband has been keeping from me. If he wakes up, can he still be the man I love? Or will his secret tear our family apart? A rollercoaster ride of emotions, Her Silent Husband is a story about family, and the darkest moments in our lives when we learn what is most important. Fans of Jodi Picoult, Kate Hewitt and Diane Chamberlain will be captivated by this unforgettable page-turner. What readers are saying about Sam Vickery: 'Wow! This book blew me away...
