Spotlight: When All is Said and Done by Christy Hayes
/
A heartbreaking novel about the sacrifices we make for love.
After an unstable childhood, marriage isn’t just a promise to Dustin Carver, it’s his lifeline. He and Tegan grew up together, fell in love, and planned their perfect life. When the future they imagined gets derailed by her demanding law career, their marriage slowly slides off the rails.
Tegan can’t believe her husband took her threat of a separation seriously and walked away without a backward glance. Heartbroken and embarrassed, she covers for his absence with lies. Lies she tells herself about her career. Lies she tells her family about her marriage. And lies she’s yet to confess to her husband about a secret she kept while he was away. When Dustin finally returns, she’s running on fumes and her lies are about to be exposed.
Seven weeks in Key West licking his wounds and watching his best friend fall in love is enough to convince Dustin to come home and fight for his marriage. Saving their relationship means returning to therapy and facing a bitter truth neither wants to address. What if their childhood romance doesn’t have a happy-ever-after ending?
This emotional read told with brutal honesty begs the ultimate question for marriages far and wide. At the end of the day—at the end of our lives—what is worth fighting for, and when, if ever, should we walk away?

About the Author
I started this adventure called life in Northern Virginia. Thanks to a large computer company whose initials spell I’ve Been Moved, my family relocated to New Jersey, back to Virginia, to Florida, and finally to metro-Atlanta where my dad shuffled offices and the family stayed put.
After college at the University of Georgia (go Dawgs!) where I met the hero of my love story, we settled into the American dream with two kids and a menagerie of adorable dogs. We’ve added a couple of horses to round out the mix.
With no more kids in the house, I spend my days cooking up all kinds of trouble for my flawed characters when I’m not walking my dogs at a local park, binge watching TV with my husband, or wondering when my kids will call their mom.
