About this listen

Handsome, successful husband. Adorable daughter. Chairwoman of the PTA. Security for her ailing mom. Jane’s got everything life has to offer. Including the lie that could destroy it all.

See Jane smile. Thirty-nine-year-old Jane Osborne appears to the world like she has a charmed life. Her daughter attends private school. Jane chairs the PTA. Even her marriage to Dan, the handsome, prominent surgeon, is blissfully happy. Her universe is stable, and her future is fixed...just like that smile. Because it’s all a ruse. Unbeknownst to anyone, after eighteen years of marriage, Dan’s revealed that he’s been living a double life and is in love with a man. But for the sake of his career, Jane must keep that secret, secret.

See Jane lie. With their livelihood on the line, Jane agrees to maintain appearances. But soon the weight of Dan’s deception and the pain of his betrayal get the better of her. Something’s got to give.

See Jane snap. Quite publicly. And a bit unlawfully. With brutal honesty, Jane must confront her choices head-on and determine - for herself - if the facade of stability she’s been protecting is worth the price of her own sanity and happiness.

A bit sanctimonious at times and a bit draggy in places but good storyline and characters.

Good Story

Like a train wreck you can't look away from I could not stop listening. The story of Jane was extremely well written and had a lot of depth. It covered a lot of difficult subjects that we all face and was very believable. I really got sucked into the storyline, understanding Jane's and the other charters journey with out it being sappy or overstated as some stories are. There were some really laugh out loud scenes that fit perfectly. I truly enjoyed this one. Xe Sands did a wonderful job with the portrayal of each character as usual! Excellent Narration.

Whoa! good one

Bethany Crandell is an amazing storyteller/author! I loved this book. It had a great mix of family drama, parent/child angst, humor, romance, and personal journey elements.

Wonderful book!

It was a sweet story about a woman dealing with her husbands big secret. It was predictable but well done.

Sweet storyline

Xe Sans delivers once again. Story was entertaining and kept my attention. Would have been a little better if there was more snap that happens to Jane, but still enjoyed it very much.

Relatable and entertaining

It takes 2 hours for Jane to snap. A full 2 hours of listening before she loses it, and no, it's not worth the wait. I only kept listening because the blurb made it sound like she had a very public meltdown, but when Jane finally snaps, it's not very dramatic or even very public. It's not even entertaining or funny, which I only mention because the next chapter is absolutely HILARIOUS, and the only really good part of the book.

Bethany Crandell can clearly write humor, and it's brilliantly, hysterically performed by Xe Sands. I'm not into rom-coms, but I absolutely could have listened to an entire book of Jane's absolute hot mess of a meet-cute. I think this book would have been better served if the author had focused exclusively on the romance, or on the issue of the husband's secret. Instead, she spends the 1st two hours building a protagonist that is not particularly interesting or likable, and setting up multiple plot lines that all end up dragging the others out.

This book couldn't keep my focus because of its own lack of focus, and the protagonist was so "meh" that even the talents of Xe Sands couldn't make her compelling.

Made me laugh- kept my interest- I want more from this author- I recommend this

Very cute listen

I was not expecting such a deep, but unfortunately true to life story.
I chose this because Xe Sands is my absolute favorite female narrator, no matter what she is reading.. if not for her narration , I don’t know that I could have listened to the book. It is not a story to really love but one that delves into our society’s struggle to accept the pain and hardships the LGBTQ’s community endures.

Heartbreaking but wonderful
