Oh my! What a tangled mess! Just when you think you know what’s going on, you realize you don’t! Somebody has left a newborn baby at Nora’s and Tom’s front door. Nora and Tom had been desperately trying to have their own child, but Nora has just had her third miscarriage. So they make the decision to keep the baby and not tell the authorities, and Nora’s 19 year old daughter agrees to keep the secret too. Is it a bit odd that all three of them would be willing to go along with this scenario? At first, yes! But then we learn more about each of them and what is influencing their decisions. Wow! This story brings up so many ethical questions. There are many lies, secrets and deceit all under the guise of acting out of love. But how much do they really care about each other? There are lots of “holy crap” moments that kept me turning the pages. Great read! Thank you to NetGalley and Bookouture for the digital ARC.

I will read anything Davis writes!
Stolen Baby by L.G. Davis grabbed me from the very beginning and didn’t let go until the end.
I loved the tension of this book, and the author captured the creepy feel.
I was hooked from the very beginning and COULD NOT put it down. There was so much to learn as you kept reading to learn more, so many characters had secrets and you don't know who to trust.
The twists, they didn't stop...it was bombshell after bombshell followed by plenty of jaw dropping moments that I wasn't expecting!

Another amazing thriller from L.G. Davis! A baby is left on a porch of a family that just had a miscarriage. They decide to keep it and pretend it’s theirs. Then lots of bombshell truths come out, and the facts of exactly where that baby came from will blow your mind!
Release date January 24, 2025.
Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for allowing me to read this advanced copy.

This one wasn't for me. I really disliked and writing style and the pace of Stolen Baby and found the main characters frustrating. However, I appreciate the opportunity to review it for you.

I loved this book and read it in almost one sitting!
It’s the perfect psychological thriller and is packed full of twists and turns. The writing is fast paced and engaging, I’d definitely recommend this book.

This was such a suspensful read from start to finish, the secrets and lies combined with the twists and turns kept the book intriguing and had me not wanting to put it down.

This had me gasping from the get go. Actually it had me doing this just reading through the blurb.
It's like a gathering storm. The black cloud ebbing closer,that angst feeling steadily growing.
And so many "oh" and "eeesh" moments. The twists and turns were incredible.
This is a psychological thriller at its best and it really really did delve deep Into the messed up pychy.
It also gave lots of womhat would you do questions. Becuase I could in a detached way that books allow, see myself as this woman and or think what the hell would I do!? Because evey step had you shocked but also empathetic of sight situations( if slightly exaggerated for the book)

I devoured this in one sitting! It was great! I felt that there were a lot of great twists. I see some people say how they couldn't stand the book because of some 'unrealistic' aspects. There's a reason it is fiction and not a true crime novel. I think that it was great- fast paced and entertaining. Will be reading more from L.G Davis!

This was so great.

Fast-paced, unpredictable like I loved them.

The ending had me shocked in so many ways

This book was a psychological mess in the best way. There was so many twists and turns and OMG WTF moments. I loved having different characters’ points of view and the changing timeline was maddening and so informative at the same time. I wish the ending was less of a cliffhanger and more definite. I wanted the two characters at the end to have a different outcome. Overall 4.5 stars and I absolutely could not put this book down.

Can’t believe it has taken me so long to read one of this authors stories as this was a very good read. It had a very good storyline that may not be for everyone. I may have found some a bit far fetched but I read it in one sitting and would definitely recommend to others.

I enjoyed this book until the ending. I was disappointed in the cliffhanger. I did enjoy the suspense and it had me guessing who's baby it was. All in all, it was a good book.

This book was an emotional landmine. Be warned because this book is addictive. I literally sat down and read this book in one morning. This writer's pace is perfect which makes reading the book a breeze.

There is a baby in a basket on the doorstep of a family who recently lost a baby. What could possibly go wrong? Although I had no clue exactly where this story would land, I knew it was going to be daring, as well as disastrous. The clock starts ticking from the beginning pages as you anxiously await answers as to who this baby belongs to and how did baby Daisy end up on Tom and Nora's doorstep. I could not get enough, and I could not put it down. The characters are are somewhat likable, but I could not decide if I trusted them or not. If you enjoy a good domestic thriller, you will love this one.

Thank you to Bookouture and NetGalley for this ARC. I am leaving this review voluntarily.

Nora, her husband Tom, and her 19 year old daughter Isobel from a previous relationship are a family. But something is missing. Nora and Tom are desperate for a baby. After a couple miscarriages, and while saving up for IVF, Nora finds out she's pregnant again. Things look good until she wakes up in agony and is rushed to hospital, once again being told her daughter had no heartbeat. Just when she is at her lowest, Nora opens her front door to find a newborn baby and a note asking for her to look after the baby. Nobody knows she lost her baby, so Nora is sure that she can just pretend that this little girl is the child she gave birth to.

This one took me some time to get into. I've been unwell this week and I get emotional when I'm ill, so having had my share of miscarriages and a full term stillbirth, reading about Nora's losses and her pain had me needing to put the book down for a little while. However, once I properly started to read it, I couldn't put it down. I really ended up enjoying it, and I loved all the twists. I figured out a few of them, but there were others that surprised me.
My only issue with this one was the ending. It made the story feel unfinished, and I also felt like there were a couple of unanswered questions (mainly what was going on with Isobel's boyfriend Joe). But overall, it was a great read, and I'm excited to read more from this author.

I was intrigued by the premise and on the whole the book was an ok easy read for me. It was quite unrealistic and just unbelievable at times but it did deliver some interesting twists. The ending was too abrupt and improbable. I would definitely give the next novel a try. Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for the chance to review it.

Thank you to NetGalley, L.G. Davis, and Bookouture for the ARC of Stolen Baby! Here's my honest take:

This book was fun ride packed with secrets, lies, and twists that kept me glued to the pages. Seriously, where did this baby come from?

The story alternates between Nora's present-day POV and her teenage daughter Isobel's flashbacks. Nora's chapters set the stage, while Isobel’s unravel the past—and trust me, that’s where the real magic happens. As the pieces fell into place, I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough.

👍🏽 What I enjoyed:

✔️ Some of those twists and revelations had me gasping.
✔️ Isobel’s POV was where the book shined - a slow burn that ignited into a blazing fire of revelations.
✔️ The pacing: steady build-up, then an adrenaline rush.

👎🏽Not-so-favorite bits:

✖️ Nora. Her over-the-top anxiety had me rolling my eyes at times. Isobel often felt like the adult in their relationship, which was…odd.
✖️ The ending was a bit unbelievable making the build up feel excessive for what the ending turned out to be.

Overall, this was a fun read with an interesting premise. I don't think it was very memorable but taking the story for what it is, it was entertaining in the moment.

Thank you to NetGalley and Bookouture for the ARC (Advance Reader Copy) of Stolen Baby by LG Davis. This book sucked me in from the start. I enjoyed picking it up to read some more each time. It was very entertaining with plenty of twists to keep the reader engaged. I have read a few by this author and I feel that she never disappoints. The ending to this book came as a surprise. I would recommend this book to others. A 4 Star rating from me.

This book was outrageously ridiculous. At times I had a hard time continuing on because it felt so unrealistic - but I finished as I wanted to know the ending. This book wasn’t for me but that doesn’t mean it won’t be for someone else.

I recommend reading and demeaning on your own if it’s for you!


Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the opportunity to read this arc in exchange for my honest review.

LG Davis creates such relatable characters in her books, which I appreciate. I like reading a story where I can see myself in their place, feel what they might be feeling.

This book started off really well with a great back story and lots of suspense that steadily builds throughout the book. I was questioning everyone's motives and had to know how it ended. My suspicions on what was happening were wrong, of course.

But, to be honest, as it progressed, I found the story to be slightly cheesey and unrealistic, and I had to really suspend my beliefs to get through it.

Overall, it was an entertaining popcorn thriller with some great twists. I just think it had the potential to be so much better. From the reviews I've seen, many have liked it a lot, but it just wasn't for me.

Many thanks to Netgalley and Bookature for my gifted copy. My opinions are my own and my review voluntary.

I received an arc copy of this book from Net Galley in exchange for my honest opinion of it. This was another amazing book by this author. I really could not put it down and I absolutely loved every twist. I was hooked from the very first page. Highly recommend!
