A terrific read a book Ibsat down to read for an hour and found myself reading blare into the night.A psychological thriller with characters that come alive highly recommend,#netgalley#harper369

Anna Witherall has the perfect life. Married to her university boyfriend David, she has an enviable job, beautiful home, and gorgeous three-year-old twin daughters, Stella and Rose. Their competent and capable nanny, Maria, is practically part of the family.

Anna's story flashes from the present, as a mother to Stella and Rose, David's wife, to the past, from when she was in university, friends with David and Meg, and meeting Harry for the first time.

As the story unravels, we realize this is much more than a woman being in love with a man that is not her husband- so much more than that.

I really enjoyed the plot and characters in this book, but I was slightly disappointed by the lack of resolution at the end! I had so many questions that didn't get answered; I felt like there were a lot of things I was left wondering about even after re-reading the ending a couple of times.

Thank You NetGalley, Publisher & Author for this gifted ebook.

Summary
On the surface, Anna Witherall has the perfect life. Married to her university boyfriend David, she has an enviable job, beautiful home, and gorgeous three-year-old twin daughters, Stella and Rose. Their competent and capable nanny, Maria, is practically part of the family.

Review
This is a classic cat and mouse game. This book will leave you guessing till the very end!
I enjoyed the plot this book had, the twists you never see coming.
This writing is fabulous and I enjoyed every second of it!

Overall- Great Book

I read Part of the Family by Charlotte Philby in one sitting! It was a twisty book that had a fantastic premise. I want to tell you all about it but its best that you go into it knowing nothing but the most basic details.

When the book begins, Anna is packing to leave and as she kisses her twin daughters goodbye, she isn’t sure she will see them again.

She is married to David but loves Harry, who has asked Anna to do something risky and she has agreed. This joint venture occurs over a couple of years.

The story jumps around a bit and flashes back to when Anna first met David. She and David and their friend Meg used to hang out a lot in college. And then Harry entered the picture and Anna fell under his spell. Without an explanation, Meg suddenly leaves and Anna is confused about her departure but is busy with her own life.

Anna gets pregnant by David and has twin girls. David invites his childhood friend Maria to help since Anna has horrible post-partum depression, he is trying to convince her that she is going crazy.

Maria knows about David’s troubled childhood and the tragic death by suicide of his mother. Did I mention that David comes from a super-duper wealthy family? Anna learns that the family business may be involved in some nefarious things. There are secrets in the family and sketchy characters surrounding them.

Anna is hoping for her true love, Harry, to come back into her life. But when he does, it’s not quite what she expected.

The official plot summary is:

David is the heir to global company Trades mart, run by his philanthropic father Clive Witherall. Meg is an ambitious intern at a national newspaper, determined to break into the media world. Anna is hiding a dark secret, desperately clinging onto her new identity. When the three friends meet Harry, everything changes…
As Anna finds herself drawn into the dark and highly controlled world of espionage, it forces her to question everything she thought she knew about the people who have recruited her – and about herself.

The story moves between London, the Maldives, and the Greek islands, and is told from the dual perspectives of Anna and Maria. The second half of the book moved quickly, and I was eager to see what would happen. Things were twisting and turning, and I didn’t expect the ending!

You can read this book right now for only $3.99 on Kindle.

An Incredible thriller that leaves the reader astounded and captivated until the last page. I would highly recommend this book to anyone with the liking of psychological thrillers.
