A gripping, fast-paced thriller that ramps up the tension with every chapter. This book was unputdownable… literally. I shouldn’t have started it because that was my day gone!

A really gripping read, I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough and now my brain is scrambled! The twists just kept rolling in. The plot unravels like clockwork and the characters were intriguing, and well- developed.

This book was a standout! What a thrilling finale had me gasping for breath and on the edge of my seat!!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ stars

What a book! Twist after twist that had me guessing all the way through! Thought I had it figured out, I was so wrong! A twist you’d never guess or expect! I read this is less than a day as it had me gripped from the start.
A first time mum, struggling in her new life, nothing seems to be clicking, then suddenly everything makes sense as to why Annie’s life seems to be falling apart. A page turning, jaw dropping rollercoaster. 5 stars to the talented AJ Campbell!

I really liked this one! This one does not disappoint. It took a couple of chapters to get going but once intrigued as to how things were going to play out, I couldn’t swipe the pages fast enough. A shotgun wedding, new baby and teenaged, twin stepchildren all living in the family home that’s under renovation - what could possibly go wrong? The chapters are short, fast paced and twists kept coming. I’m a fan of AJ Campbell’s writing and already looking forward to the next book.
Thank You to NetGalley, Bookouture, and AJ Campbell for the opportunity to read and thoroughly enjoy this ARC.

Being a new mother is not easy and it's maybe even more challenging when you are a first time mother. After all everything is totally new to you and although you do your best, it can make you feel like nothing is going your way.

This is what happens to our protagonist. She is suffering a bad case of baby brains, with blackouts and memory lapses and she blames it all on lack of sleep and giving birth. It makes her doubt everything and everyone, seeing conspiracies left, right and center.

But is exhaustion really the cause of it all?

I had lots of names on my list of suspects, but I did not add the one I should have added in order to uncover the truth. It was a big surprise when the name was revealed and I loved it. I absolutely enjoyed the plot and though it's maybe strange to say, but sometimes something devastating has to happen to bring people closer together.

I could not stop turning the pages of this excellent book. 5 stars

Thank you

Another 5 star read from the amazingly talented A J Campbell.
I knew from the beginning something was off and immediately felt sorry for Annie! I was just willing her to get her and baby Lola to safety. The twist is one I NEVER saw coming!! When Max hired Zoe I was screaming saying Nooooo TRUST NO ONE I felt myself holding my breath believing I was living it too!!! a truly gripping and intriguing read I just couldn’t stop reading! The fact it’s a “Max” is an added bonus as I love to see my children names in a book.

Clear your diary and take a day off for this one! Another brilliant book from AJ Campbell.
This one pulls you in by the scruff of the neck and doesn't let go until you've turned the final page.
Annie thinks she's going mad. Since she gave birth to baby Lola, her world has turned upside down. Who can she trust? Why does she feel so ill?
This book that is bursting at the seams with drama, suspense and intrigue is one you won't be able to leave alone. The characters are complex and well drawn out. I was rooting for Annie all the way through.
The ending captures every loose end expertly and I read it in one sitting. That's how good it is.
My thanks go to NetGalley and the author for the opportunity to read the ARC.

Thanks Bookouture and Netgalley for this ARC!

I literally inhalled the book from the first page. The short chapters, the building tnesion, the twists.... just everything I love about a good thriller. All the time I was very invested, and hoping thisngs would turn and end well for Annie... but then, can they, when her baby is suddenly missing, and she is sleep-deprived and often having blackouts? Not to mention all the others things that seem to go on in her life... I am not going to tell you, you'll have to read the book to find out!

This was my first AJ Campbell book, but surely will not be my last.

This talented author has written a page turner. Red herrings kept me guessing. The realistic characters kept the story moving quickly. What was real? What was fiction? I liked this mystery. Suspenseful… I like this author. Thanks Netgalley.

This book was too good to put down. Just when I thought I knew where it was going it would change course. Looking forward to more like this.

This was my first book from A.J. Campbell and I will be checking out more books from this author. I absolutely devoured this book in one day. The entire book had me hooked from the beginning wanting to know what was happening to Annie. I was really feeling for Annie the entire book and was convinced her husband Max was setting her up, I didn't expect the twist at the end. I also really love Annie's best friend Nisha throughout the book, she was such a great friend. I am so glad her step kids came around at the end and they got a happy ending, such a great book! Loved it!

Wow what a great read! Fab storyline with twists that I didn't see coming.
A real page turner.
Great character portrayals
Superb ending
Awesome book
