Thank you #netgally for allowing me to read this.
The Perfect Daughter - well how many secrets and lies can 3 people have?
The story centres around Jessica, her mother and Adam her boyfriend.

Jess' mums years of grinding her down with mind games led to her self worth being almost at 0. Desperate to be loved, she falls for Plumber Adam. He tries to build her up, changes her clothes, hair and make up. Only, not all is as it seems.

Jess has her own secrets. When Adam goes missing, presumed dead, the search for the truth begins.

We bounce between the present day, her childhood and the start of her relationship with Adam.

With so many untruths, will she choose the truth in the end?

Perfect like its name.
Jess Harper has spent her whole life trying to make her mum, Abigail happy and proud. And everything Jess does, from the clothes she wears, the job she has, the men she dates, are all approved by Abigail first. So when Jess announces that she has a new man in her life – plumber Adam – Abigail is less than impressed. 'A plumber? Really, Jessica....' Adam encourages Jess to break free from her mum’s manipulation, can’t she see what’s happening? But Abigail is only doing these things to keep Jess safe, to protect her from getting hurt again…isn’t she?Jess, caught in the middle, doesn’t know who to believe or trust. And then Adam vanishes without trace. Now Jess is the police’s prime suspect and they want to know if Jess really is as perfect as she seems.
I really want this book to succeed because it really is twisty. Loved it.
Thanks to NetGalley and Boldwood Books for giving me an advance copy.
