Every Couple's Fear
(2025)(The sixth book in the Every Parent's Fear series)
A novel by Joanna Warrington
Love's tangled threads weave a story of commitment and unspoken desire
In the tumultuous year of 1987, amid the echoes of Margaret Thatcher’s third term, 26-year-old Toby stands nervously at the altar, ready to marry his beloved bride.
As the cameras click and the congregation holds its breath, hidden emotions swirl in the air––longing glances from secret admirers and sceptical murmurs from family.
What should be a joyful day takes an unexpected turn ending in tears for the bride.
Among the guests are a German thalidomide survivor and her adoptive mother whose story is told through her diary, a haunting narrative that spans from the shadows of the Nazi era to the hopeful dawn following the fall of the Berlin Wall. It’s a story that Jasper is eager to explore.
As Toby embarks on his honeymoon, he quickly discovers his new life comes with unforeseen challenges. With his wife expecting their first child, alarming news about another thalidomide survivor stirs fear and alarm and questions are raised. As they navigate the complexities of their new lives, Toby and his wife find themselves becoming impassioned advocates for disability rights.
Family dynamics shift with Bill falling for Patsy, forcing everyone to confront the secret they’ve kept for so long.
‘Every Couple’s Fear’, the sixth book in the series, intricately navigates the complexities of love, disability and parenthood. Will the trials ahead bring them closer, or will hidden truths tear their newfound happiness apart? Join Toby on this poignant journey of resilience, hope and love as he learns that the ties that bind us can also challenge the very foundations of relationships.
Praise for the Series!
