I absolutely devoured this one, and if time had permitted, would have done it in one sitting! I did however, manage 70% in one night 😂 It was gritty, dark and emotional with some killer twists thrown in and what a clever storyline! As always, JP Delaney delivers a fantastic book....thanks for the early copy! ❤️

Awesome.
Susie Jukes is contacted on social media by Anna, the girl she gave up for adoption fifteen years ago. But when they meet, Anna's home life sounds distinctly strange to Susie and her husband Gabe. And when Anna's adoptive parents seem to overreact to the fact she contacted them at all, Susie becomes convinced that Anna needs her help. But is Anna's own behaviour simply what you'd expect from someone recovering from a traumatic childhood? Or are there other secrets at play here - secrets Susie has also been hiding for the last fifteen years?
Loved it thoroughly. A fun read.
Thanks to NetGalley and Quercus Books for giving me an advance copy.

My Darling Daughter should come with a warning - do not start reading unless you have time to spare! I received my advance copy yesterday and absolutely devoured it in one sitting. JP Delaney is a master of web spinning and this latest offering is packed with lies, deceit and family secrets that hooks in the reader and keeps them engrossed whilst events (and the truth) unravels.

Gabe and Susie are happily married musicians, living a life of comfortable luxury in their beautiful country home and trying for a baby when the daughter that Susie gave up for adoption 15 years ago gets in touch and needs their help…

Anna’s arrival into the couple’s lives brings with it questions, drama and a whole host of issues that will test all that Gabe and Susie hold dear.

Told from the POV of the three main characters, ‘My Darling Daughter’ starts with an initial revelation on the first page and at no point does the pace drop. With plenty of twists and turns, this is a literal page-turner of a novel and I already can’t wait for Delaney’s next book!

Big thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for the advance copy in return for my honest review.

I downloaded this early this morning and I have been unable to put it down since I opened it. This book is like The Perfect Child by Lucinda Berry… but on steroids. I have been so stressed over it, but in a good way. I’ve massively enjoyed this and recommend it to anyone!
