Her husband disappeared on their wedding day . . .

Carrie and Johan are a young couple, dancing together on a beach in Thailand hours after their wedding ceremony. They are deeply in love and luminously happy . . . until, without warning, Johan is taken from the beach by armed men, never to be seen again.

Twelve years later, Carrieβ€”now happily married to another man and mother to two young childrenβ€”stumbles across Johan by accident online. She learns that he escaped Thailand seven years ago and has been living in Stockholm ever since.

As the memories of their passionate relationship return to her, Carrie is compelled to find out what happened on that beach all those years ago and why Johan never got in contact.

The man who promised her a lifetime of love is now a mystery she must solveβ€”but are the answers worth risking her marriage, her family, and everything she fought so hard to rebuild?

The One Day You Were My Husband reveals that the truth is more shocking than any lie . . .
