So, when she decides to train to swim the English Channel, she understands why no one believes she can do it. She doesn't really believe she can either, but she's determined to try. As she strides into the Channel with hours stretching ahead of her, Cordelia swims against every milestone in her life so far. Every failed relationship, every friendship let go, every exam failed, every tricky job she quit. A life lived never giving it her all. Until now. With every stroke, with every mile, Cordelia knows that this is finally her moment. Because if she keeps this promise to herself, if she doesn't give up, nothing will ever be the same again.

Praise for Janet Hoggarth:'Such brilliant characters, such amazing insights and some great one liners that I hope I will remember. I thoroughly enjoyed this - must go to sleep now as it is nearly morning but I couldn't put it down! Enjoy' ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Reader Review'I don't usually take the time to write a review but felt compelled to do so for this book. A story of 4 generations of women and their stories and how information withheld from each creates unforseen repercussions that spin out over many years. I felt like I was reading someone's personal journey of discovery and not just a character in a book. Quality realistic conversations throughout. Lovely story!' ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Reader Review'What a great read. Read it over two days because I couldn't stop thinking about it. It just hit home with all the 'family secrets' that seem so important at the time and so meaningless generations later. It really hit home as I work through my own genealogy. Good read and I will definitely watch for more by this author' ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Reader Review'A heart-rending, heart-warming, heart-stopping and hilarious tale of a mother's love and a wounded soul rediscovering her awesome potential for life and (we are left hoping) for lasting love' ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Reader Review'Sometimes heart-breaking, frequently laugh-out-loud funny and always searingly honest. The story is a rollercoaster and one that I was hooked on until the very end. More from Janet Hoggarth please!' ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Reader Review'Best book I've read for a long time! An honest and empowering read' ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Reader Review'A real page turner! This book is written in a heartfelt and endearing way. . . the author manages to create a realistic story full of joy, heartbreak, tears and laughter' ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Reader Review"

Her husband leaves them, claiming he's just 'lost the love', like one might carelessly lose a glove.
