Leigh Monroe has spent thirty years surviving the kind of marriage that doesn’t leave bruises—but leaves you bleeding anyway.
From the outside, she’s the devoted wife, the perfect homemaker, the woman who always has it together. But behind closed doors? Leigh has spent decades walking on eggshells, shrinking herself to avoid the next explosion, and silently longing for a life where she could finally breathe.
When her youngest daughter graduates college, Leigh makes the quietest, boldest decision of her she leaves.
With a hidden apartment, a secret savings account, and a list of dreams long buried beneath other people’s expectations, Leigh begins again. Alone—but free. And in that freedom, she starts to rediscover who she really is... and what she truly wants.
The Quiet Exit is a tender, emotionally charged story of survival, second chances, and reclaiming your voice—no matter how long it’s been silenced.
Perfect for fans of emotional healing, midlife reinvention, and stories that make you believe it's never too late to begin again.
