What happens after Happy Ever After?
After thirty-four years of marriage, Julie and Michael's grand romance has . . . fizzled. More like housemates than husband and wife, Julie wonders whether it's time to give up on their love story, once and for all.
A lockdown - just the two of them - seems like it might be the final straw.
But, when stripped of all distraction and forced to meet eyes across the dinner table every night, unexpected sparks begin to fly . . .
Can Julie and Michael ever find a way back to who they used to be?
Or could this be the start of a whole new love story?

Jo Wilde considers herself a proud Midlander (despite being told by a university friend that 'the Midlands' doesn't exist) and loves living in her Derbyshire village with her two children, two stepchildren, two hamsters, two dogs and - thankfully - one husband. To be fair, with the children now largely grown up, they only live with her intermittently when their own money and their supply of booze runs out. Upon retirement, Jo and her husband plan to take off in a mobile home (or, in her mind, a mobile writing office) to see the world.
In the meantime, Jo's very happy with imaginary worlds and has now published a range of fiction, including historical novels as Joanna Courtney and contemporary fiction as Anna Stuart.
