Description
A dangerous secret. A suspicious death. A mother determined to find answers.
A gripping story of a mother's courage and devotion by the number one bestselling author of The Girlfriend Michelle Francis.
Getting pregnant as a teenager was never part of Kate's plan, but when it happens she's determined to do right by her daughter, showing her the love she never had as a child.
Life as a single mother is hard, sometimes impossible, but it only brings Kate and Becky closer together. By the time Becky is making her own way in the world as a tenacious trainee journalist, Kate couldn't be prouder. But when the unthinkable happens, Kate's life is changed forever. Desperately trying to understand, Kate stumbles across a story Becky was researching.

After reading Michelle Frances other books “ The Girlfriend” and “The Temp” both 5 star books in my opinion, I was over the moon to get this book and couldn’t wait to sink my teeth into it!!
Michelle Frances you have done it again!! You had me gripped from the very beginning, I swear the world could have ended and I wouldn’t have noticed as I was so engrossed in this amazing book!!
Katie had her daughter Becky when she was a teenager and bought her up single handily. She has sacrificed a lot to give her the best start in life. Although life as a single mother is hard the 2 of them are very close and Katie couldn’t be prouder of her daughter getting a position as a trainee journalist.
Without giving this amazing plot away, there is a terrible accident involving Becky, Katie’s life is changed forever and when she discovers what Becky’s undercover story is she carries on investigating even though she is going against dangerous people who do not want this becoming public.
I was totally engrossed by this story of a mother who will do anything to find out what happened to her daughter and is fighting for people’s rights. I came away from this book feeling that if you have the determination you can put your mind to anything. In this instance Katie goes against corporate companies to fight for the right of everyday people.
Definitely a 10 out of 10 .A must read book that made me laugh and cry out loud at the same time!!
Thank you to Netgalley for my copy in exchange for a review.
