Synopsis

A page-turning story about new friendships, motherhood and heart-breaking secrets…. ‘I couldn’t put it down’ Lorraine Kelly ‘A relatable, wryly funny tale’ ‘Every new mum will want to read this’ Adele Parks ‘Gripping…A great read’ Aisha Moore is eight months pregnant. She’s thrilled, and a little scared. Not least because her husband Jason hasn’t quite wrapped his head around the fact. Lucy is having her first child too. She has finally got her wish – although the circumstances aren’t quite what she had hoped. Oscar will be a great dad though, won’t he? When the two women join the same baby group, they quickly become friends and before long they’re confiding in each other. Only there’s one thing Lucy hasn’t told Aisha. And while a baby may turn your life upside-down, a secret this big will change everything. What readers are saying about 'A definite five star read!' 'I absolutely loved this book!' ‘Expertly crafted and utterly readable – I can highly recommend it’ ‘Everything in this book is just perfect! Great characters and the storyline itself is just so relatable’ 'A gem of a story' 'I devoured it in one sitting' 'Realistic characters and an intriguing plot'
