The brand new novel from the bestselling author of The Shoemaker's Wife, a Richard and Judy Book Club pick

When Chi Chi Donatelli and Saverio Armandonada meet by chance on the Jersey shore, the two form a duo that takes the music industry by storm. Together they navigate the glamorous world of show business, from Hollywood and Las Vegas to New York City and beyond, but after a dream wedding they quickly realise that one of them will soon have to make a choice: who will put their professional ambition aside to build a family, and who will remain in the spotlight?

As they juggle the demands of their public lives, secrets will be revealed, promises will be broken and loyalty will be tested . . .
