Synopsis

Bob and Sheila Beckwith had everything: rewarding careers, two wonderful daughters, and a perfect marriage . . . almost perfect. For what Sheila didn't know was that Bob had once been unfaithful - only once, ten years ago during a business trip to France. What Bob didn't know was that his brief affair had produced a son. Now a tragic accident - and one fateful phone call - will change Bob and Sheila's life forever . . .

Review:

Tugs at our emotions ... unblushingly sentimental Cosmopolitan Gentle, sentimental and genuinely touching, Segal's new novel possesses many of the qualities LOVE STORY had. Publishers Weekly Warm, sentimental and charged with true parental emotion ... It will give a great many readers much pleasure by tugging at their heart strings with that most human of emotions - the relationships between parents and between parents and children John Barkham Reviews
