Nicole Madigan
Four Women’s Stories of Why They Left – or Why They Stayed
View description
Is love enough? In Torn, four women face the biggest decisions of their lives. For readers of Heartsick and Three Women.

Anna is in her early seventies and met her future husband when they were 12 years old. One day, Anna's daughter handed her a card from another woman. 

Kate is in her mid-fifties. Her husband gave Kate her dream family, and for her kids, she tolerated his drinking and affairs. But then he started gambling away their futures.

Liana, in her mid-forties, was in a series of abusive relationships before she finally met a man who seemed 'normal'. Then she spotted the signs of addiction she knew all too well.

Amanda, in her mid-thirties, and her husband were childhood sweethearts. She found out he'd been visiting sex workers since their wedding – then she met the love of her life.

Torn is an intimate, compelling exploration of the age-old dilemma: to stay in an unhappy relationship, or to leave? This book is about four women in moments of crisis – and what they chose to do next.
