Walking in the Rain

Young and idealistic, Jessamy ‘Jess’ returns from her gap year in Ghana after a bad injury.

Not quite fitting in with her Quaker family, she dreams of a bigger life.

When her old boyfriend Simon gets in touch saying he was wrong to break up with her when she was away, Jess is delighted.

Soon Simon is talking marriage and a life together, and even though Jess is hesitant, she finds herself married, living in a horrible flat, and trying to deal with Simon’s mood swings and ugly temper.

It’s not the life she wants for herself, but it is the life she chose, so she finds strength she never knew she had, and gets things done.

Soon, she and Simon have two daughters and a lovely house, even if it was paid for by his parents.

Jess is not happy, but she has good friends, including her best friend Polly, married to the gorgeous Matt, who once held a candle for Jess.

Just when Jess thinks life is starting to calm down, Simon delivers a crushing blow that changes all their lives, forever.

And as the dust starts to settle, Jess thinks that after a lot of heartache and missed opportunities, her dreams might actually be starting to come true…

Walking in the Rain is a captivating story about a woman’s resilience, courage and second chances.
