This book was a psychological mess in the best way. There was so many twists and turns and OMG WTF moments. I loved having different characters’ points of view and the changing timeline was maddening and so informative at the same time. I wish the ending was less of a cliffhanger and more definite. I wanted the two characters at the end to have a different outcome. Overall 4.5 stars and I absolutely could not put this book down.

Can’t believe it has taken me so long to read one of this authors stories as this was a very good read. It had a very good storyline that may not be for everyone. I may have found some a bit far fetched but I read it in one sitting and would definitely recommend to others.

I enjoyed this book until the ending. I was disappointed in the cliffhanger. I did enjoy the suspense and it had me guessing who's baby it was. All in all, it was a good book.

This book was an emotional landmine. Be warned because this book is addictive. I literally sat down and read this book in one morning. This writer's pace is perfect which makes reading the book a breeze.

There is a baby in a basket on the doorstep of a family who recently lost a baby. What could possibly go wrong? Although I had no clue exactly where this story would land, I knew it was going to be daring, as well as disastrous. The clock starts ticking from the beginning pages as you anxiously await answers as to who this baby belongs to and how did baby Daisy end up on Tom and Nora's doorstep. I could not get enough, and I could not put it down. The characters are are somewhat likable, but I could not decide if I trusted them or not. If you enjoy a good domestic thriller, you will love this one.

Thank you to Bookouture and NetGalley for this ARC. I am leaving this review voluntarily.

Nora, her husband Tom, and her 19 year old daughter Isobel from a previous relationship are a family. But something is missing. Nora and Tom are desperate for a baby. After a couple miscarriages, and while saving up for IVF, Nora finds out she's pregnant again. Things look good until she wakes up in agony and is rushed to hospital, once again being told her daughter had no heartbeat. Just when she is at her lowest, Nora opens her front door to find a newborn baby and a note asking for her to look after the baby. Nobody knows she lost her baby, so Nora is sure that she can just pretend that this little girl is the child she gave birth to.

This one took me some time to get into. I've been unwell this week and I get emotional when I'm ill, so having had my share of miscarriages and a full term stillbirth, reading about Nora's losses and her pain had me needing to put the book down for a little while. However, once I properly started to read it, I couldn't put it down. I really ended up enjoying it, and I loved all the twists. I figured out a few of them, but there were others that surprised me.
My only issue with this one was the ending. It made the story feel unfinished, and I also felt like there were a couple of unanswered questions (mainly what was going on with Isobel's boyfriend Joe). But overall, it was a great read, and I'm excited to read more from this author.

I was intrigued by the premise and on the whole the book was an ok easy read for me. It was quite unrealistic and just unbelievable at times but it did deliver some interesting twists. The ending was too abrupt and improbable. I would definitely give the next novel a try. Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for the chance to review it.

Thank you to NetGalley, L.G. Davis, and Bookouture for the ARC of Stolen Baby! Here's my honest take:

This book was fun ride packed with secrets, lies, and twists that kept me glued to the pages. Seriously, where did this baby come from?

The story alternates between Nora's present-day POV and her teenage daughter Isobel's flashbacks. Nora's chapters set the stage, while Isobel’s unravel the past—and trust me, that’s where the real magic happens. As the pieces fell into place, I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough.

👍🏽 What I enjoyed:

✔️ Some of those twists and revelations had me gasping.
✔️ Isobel’s POV was where the book shined - a slow burn that ignited into a blazing fire of revelations.
✔️ The pacing: steady build-up, then an adrenaline rush.

👎🏽Not-so-favorite bits:

✖️ Nora. Her over-the-top anxiety had me rolling my eyes at times. Isobel often felt like the adult in their relationship, which was…odd.
✖️ The ending was a bit unbelievable making the build up feel excessive for what the ending turned out to be.

Overall, this was a fun read with an interesting premise. I don't think it was very memorable but taking the story for what it is, it was entertaining in the moment.

Thank you to NetGalley and Bookouture for the ARC (Advance Reader Copy) of Stolen Baby by LG Davis. This book sucked me in from the start. I enjoyed picking it up to read some more each time. It was very entertaining with plenty of twists to keep the reader engaged. I have read a few by this author and I feel that she never disappoints. The ending to this book came as a surprise. I would recommend this book to others. A 4 Star rating from me.

This book was outrageously ridiculous. At times I had a hard time continuing on because it felt so unrealistic - but I finished as I wanted to know the ending. This book wasn’t for me but that doesn’t mean it won’t be for someone else.

I recommend reading and demeaning on your own if it’s for you!


Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the opportunity to read this arc in exchange for my honest review.

LG Davis creates such relatable characters in her books, which I appreciate. I like reading a story where I can see myself in their place, feel what they might be feeling.

This book started off really well with a great back story and lots of suspense that steadily builds throughout the book. I was questioning everyone's motives and had to know how it ended. My suspicions on what was happening were wrong, of course.

But, to be honest, as it progressed, I found the story to be slightly cheesey and unrealistic, and I had to really suspend my beliefs to get through it.

Overall, it was an entertaining popcorn thriller with some great twists. I just think it had the potential to be so much better. From the reviews I've seen, many have liked it a lot, but it just wasn't for me.

Many thanks to Netgalley and Bookature for my gifted copy. My opinions are my own and my review voluntary.

I received an arc copy of this book from Net Galley in exchange for my honest opinion of it. This was another amazing book by this author. I really could not put it down and I absolutely loved every twist. I was hooked from the very first page. Highly recommend!

From the moment I picked up Stolen Baby, I was captivated. The gripping plot, filled with lies and deceit, and the twists had me glued to the pages! I devoured the book in one go, staying up way to late, haha. L.G. Davis, masterfully crafted a storyline that was both heart-wrenching and exhilarating, making it impossible not to empathize with the characters' struggles. The emotional depth added another layer to the suspense, making the stakes feel incredibly high.
This book had me on the edge of my seat, and I highly recommend it to anyone who loves a heart-pounding read.

This book was an easy read, and it was fairly predictable. The ending was definitely a surprise cliffhanger!

Nora is heartbroken after a miscarriage and her mental health is at rock bottom. When she answers the door to find a newborn baby left with a note, she knows she should call the police, but just can't bring herself to do it. Especially as nobody yet knows about the loss of her baby and how easy it would therefore be to pass Daisy off as her own...

Nora's daughter, Isobel, has recently moved home after having a huge fall-out with her best friend and flatmate and, out of worry for her mother, agrees to keep the secret about the baby, along with her step-father Tom, who is happy to take on the role as father to baby Daisy.

Then tragedy strikes and Izzy's (former?) best friend is found dead. From this point, the twists start to drop in droves. Lies and secrets are unmasked, building to a tension filled cliffhanger of an ending. Wow!

5 ⭐️ Thanks to Netgalley, L. G. Davis and Bookouture, for an ARC in return for an honest review.
