The tears began to flow. ‘I can’t do this on my own,’ Emily sobbed. ‘I don’t know how.’
When Emily’s husband dies in a terrible accident, she’s not the only wife he leaves behind.
Because, before their whirlwind romance and Emily’s discovery she was pregnant, Pete had been married to Caroline for more than twenty years. A devastating tragedy had torn them apart. But there was a part of Pete that had never fully left his first wife and a secret that would bind them together, forever.
Finding herself lonely, heartbroken, and forced to face life and motherhood alone – Emily is surprised that Caroline offers her support. But Emily knows she needs someone she can trust and rely on. Even if it’s the woman her husband loved before her.
A tentative friendship develops and their lives become entwined. Their bond grows ever stronger as Caroline steps in to help when Emily’s baby arrives unexpectedly early. But it’s not just Caroline hiding a secret. Both of the women who once loved Pete have things they can never admit, without risking a friendship that might be the only thing keeping them both afloat.
When grief begins to take its toll on Emily, she feels sure that Caroline is the only person who can save her and baby Dylan… But should she trust the woman he loved before her – with her life… Or her child’s?
An utterly devastating, but ultimately uplifting, emotional women’s fiction novel about friendship, motherhood and loss. Perfect for fans of Jodi Picoult, Susan Lewis and Jojo Moyes.
Readers are loving His First Wife’s Secret:‘Wow. Wow… It has been a long time since I have read a book in one sitting… but I could not put this down! I absolutely loved it from start to finish. As soon I read the prologue I was already reaching for the tissues… Another emotional and addicting read!’ Goodreads reviewer ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
‘This book was read in less than a day. I reluctantly put it down to go on the school run today, but stood at the school door reading… This is how obsessed I was with the heart-warming story… Absolutely stunning.’ Chloesreadingroom ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
‘Wonderful… very touching… You feel every bit of pain, of love, of joy… It’s like you are dropped in the middle and you can see what’s happening first-hand… 5 stars.’ B for Bookreview ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Praise for Emma Robinson:‘Wow!!! Where to even begin?? Mind you, it's hard enough to write this with blurry eyes through tears!!… Absolutely heartbreaking and a real tear jerker.’ Kirsty Whitlock ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
‘Absolutely gut-wrenching, beautiful … I have never audibly sobbed or struggled to read a book through tears, but this one was tough…. I cannot express the need for everyone to read this book… It is just beautiful and I think it gives a lot for people to learn from in their own lives too.’ Goodreads reviewer ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
‘OMG. OMG. OMG. The author made me cry. I still had a book hangover when I started writing this review. There was still a lingering lump in my throat all through the day… There are books which leave their wispy trails around you that remind you to find your happiness. This was one such book… Had me turning the pages slowly, living each word, feeling each emotion.’ Shalini’s Books and Reviews ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
