About this listen

"A breathtaking novel that gets under the skin of the complexities of love, sex and human nature"-Katie Bishop, author of THE GIRLS OF SUMMER

"A perceptive book about intimacy and desire that feels zingy, original, fresh"-Chloë Ashby, author of SECOND SELF

"Tender, shimmering, elegant, and true... thoughtful and sensual, sexy and cerebral"-Laura Barnett, author of THE VERSIONS OF US


Every relationship has rules. What if they all changed?

Hura and Cillian have a happy, secure marriage and are on the brink of planning a family. But when Hura's teaching career gets derailed, they decide it's time to explore a fantasy: opening up their relationship.

Roses has never been monogamous. Her connection with elusive James-who works all hours as a junior doctor-is electric, and they're falling for each other. But both have secrets that make intimacy feel dangerous, and in a bid to reassert her independence, Roses suggests they sleep with other people.

When these two couples collide, life shifts on its axis and starts to spin out of control. As Roses and James fight to keep the past from overwhelming them, and Cillian and Hura test the limits of trust, they must all decide which lines to draw-and which to cross.

A passionate deconstruction of the complexities of sex, love, honesty and betrayal, OPEN SEASON marks Cassie Werber out as a major new talent.©2024 Cassie Werber (P)2024 Orion Publishing Group Limited

i didnt want it to end!

Absolutely loved this book, the clever descriptions of London life, the way it keeps the characters at the centre of the subject rather than their relationship style. i was completely lost in their world!

Fantastic story with complex characters

I’ve found myself looking forward to my longer commutes as it meant I could listen to a larger chunk of this book. Excellent story with fascinating characters that draw you into their world. Five stars all round 🤩

Loved it

I loved it - thank you. It’s beautiful! The characters are living on in my head. So layered and complicated and rich.

Not for me

It’s well written etc but I just didn’t enjoy it. I just didn’t find the characters sympathetic

Morose

Didn't enjoy the story. And the narration was monotone. Had to keep rewinding as I kept drifting away.
