The Love of My Life Summary

The Love of My Life by Rosie Walsh

** From Rosie Walsh, the author of bestselling sensation The Man Who Didn't Call, comes her new novel The Love of My Life **

'Stunning' Daily Mail
'A winning combination of big emotions and didn't-see-that-coming twist' Good Housekeeping


I have held you every night for ten years and I didn't even know your name. We have a child together. A dog, a house.
Who are you?


Emma loves her husband Leo and their young daughter Ruby: she'd do anything for them. But almost everything she's told them about herself is a lie.

And she might just have got away with it, if it weren't for her husband's job. Leo is an obituary writer and Emma is a well-known marine biologist, so, when she suffers a serious illness, Leo copes by doing what he knows best - reading and writing about her life. But as he starts to unravel her past, he discovers the woman he loves doesn't really exist. Even her name is fictitious.

When the very darkest moments of Emma's past life finally emerge, she must somehow prove to Leo that she really is the woman he always thought she was . . . But first, she must tell him about the love of her other life.

Brilliantly plotted and beautifully written, what really elevates Rosie Walsh's book above the competition is the characters. Contradictory, flawed and entirely human, I loved and rooted for them like real people

-- Kate Riordan, author of The Heatwave
Nobody marries suspense and tenderness quite like Rosie Walsh. Formidably complex and fiendishly clever, The Love of My Life takes the emotional thriller to a whole new level.
