This was a really thoughtful read told from a highly unusual perspective. Eliza is one of four potential children that Becca might be the mum of, they’ve been with her since birth and each know their potential conception date but they have no idea if they will actually be born. When Becca meets Anthony two of her siblings realise he is their dad but he isn’t Eliza’s or one of her brothers and it causes tension when they realise due to their conception dates they’re all unlikely to be born.

What this actually is however is the story of Becca told through the eyes of her even present unborn child Eliza and how she meets Eliza’s dad and how their relationship transpires, this is juggled with her feelings for Anthony and the differences between the two relationships. It reflects on the impact of Becca’s difficult relationship with her mum and her wanting to do her best for her child but ultimately it causes a very big dilemma for Eliza. This was an incredibly perceptive relationship read and showed the core of a relationship from an outsiders perspective but at far closer range than would usually be possible which made it a very strong and engrossing story.
