After the upheaval of moving from Cornwall to Cheshire to find work, Tom and Kate Darrington seem to have life sorted out. Kate is a devoted mother and talented artist, Tom a caring and sensitive husband and father. They have the perfect marriage, a beautiful home, two gorgeous children and are still madly in love. But when a tragic accident strikes, their perfect lives are torn apart and their love is put to the test. But will love be enough to save their marriage? The shockwaves from the Darringtons' tragedy spread out like ripples on a pond and touch the lives of the people around them. Kate's best friend Chloe tries to offer support, but her own problems cloud her judgement. Caroline, the young receptionist at Tom's office, complicates matters with her infatuation for him, and her clumsy attempt to help almost ends in disaster. As this hard-hitting domestic drama unfolds, lives become entangled and relationships change forever.

Customer Reviews
New author with tremendous talent
Susi Osborne's first novel highlights her great talent to sensitively portray the emotional effect on relationships after a horrific tragedy is caused by the innocent act of a child. The title 'Ripples of Life' could not be more appropriate as the story unfolds. I particularly enjoyed the way she interweaves her characters; sometimes injecting a delightful sense of humour which cleverly lightens the mood. This is a novel where only sleep denied my reading it from cover to cover and I can well recommend this book to women readers. I am looking forward to reading Susi's next book which I understand is well on the way to completion.
Fantastic!!
I read the book after my mum recieved a copy from Susi herself, it was fantastic, couldn't put it down!I've passed it onto my friends and they all agree. Can not wait til the next book from Mrs Osborne!
An addictive read
This book has got everything you want in it for a great girly read - humour, tears, love & sex!! The best book I've read in ages, I couldn't put it down.
