Summary

Money changes everything in this darkly comic tale of romantic revenge. When shy, insecure Liverpudlian Ellie Freeman unexpectedly wins more than a million pounds in the football betting pools, she sees it as a way to transform the life of her bitter, frustrated, and, above all, distant husband Malcolm. She hides the news of her win from Malc, and uses the money to invest in a firm that will give her husband a better job than the warehouseman position he currently holds. And, indeed, the new job does make Malc a new man - a new man who suddenly envisions a life without Ellie. Can Ellie, too, become a new person? Can she become a stronger, more confident woman who is capable of winning her husband back…and is that even what she wants anymore?

Liked the story as it’s not the usual run of the mill stuff but the narrator was so bad, switching between American and a very bad cockney accent it ruined the story for me

Terrible narrator i couldn’t listen

Great book and great story.

Only one issue with this - the narrator is American and reading a story about English people. The accents aren’t good and the pronunciation of some words, such as snooker, is American and wrong. Please think about who you get to narrate your books please - it really does make a difference.

I’ve listened to a few of Gillian Whites books now and think she is a really good author. I love how she writes about ordinary people going through extraordinary circumstances.
I think this author has been done a great disservice in the terrible narration of many of her books though. Please PLEASE Audible -get them re-recorded with good narrators the story’s are really worth it.
The narration in this one was truly heinous. An American or Canadian not sure..trying to do a book based around Newcastle is bad enough but her attempts at even a basic English accent sounded like she was taking the mickey. I only held out to the end as I liked the story.

Good story terrible narration
