What would you do if you found a newborn on your doorstep?

From the moment I picked up Stolen Baby, I was captivated. The gripping plot, filled with lies and deceit, and the twists had me glued to the pages! I devoured the book in one go, staying up way to late, haha. L.G. Davis, masterfully crafted a storyline that was both heart-wrenching and exhilarating, making it impossible not to empathize with the characters' struggles. The emotional depth added another layer to the suspense, making the stakes feel incredibly high.
This book had me on the edge of my seat, and I highly recommend it to anyone who loves a heart-pounding read.

What would you do if you found a newborn baby on your front porch? Nora and Tom don't notify the police. Instead, they decide to keep baby Daisy and raise her as their own. Everyone has secrets, and it's only a matter of time before they all come tumbling out.

This book was an easy read, and it was fairly predictable. The ending was definitely a surprise cliffhanger!

Thank you to NetGalley for the opportunity to read this ARC in exchange for my honest opinion/review.

The story begins with a straightforward premise—an abandoned baby is found, and the mystery of where it came from and who its parents are takes center stage. As a reader, I thought I had the plot figured out, but like any great psychological thriller, the author skillfully throws in unexpected twists that completely reshape the narrative.

The suspense builds steadily, as Davis masterfully crafts a series of twists that keep the reader guessing, unable to put the book down. Each revelation is timed perfectly, providing just enough information to make you question your assumptions and dive deeper into the mystery.

If you like your thriller fast-paced and twisty, then read this!

Nora is heartbroken after a miscarriage and her mental health is at rock bottom. When she answers the door to find a newborn baby left with a note, she knows she should call the police, but just can't bring herself to do it. Especially as nobody yet knows about the loss of her baby and how easy it would therefore be to pass Daisy off as her own...

Nora's daughter, Isobel, has recently moved home after having a huge fall-out with her best friend and flatmate and, out of worry for her mother, agrees to keep the secret about the baby, along with her step-father Tom, who is happy to take on the role as father to baby Daisy.

Then tragedy strikes and Izzy's (former?) best friend is found dead. From this point, the twists start to drop in droves. Lies and secrets are unmasked, building to a tension filled cliffhanger of an ending. Wow!

5 ⭐️ Thanks to Netgalley, L. G. Davis and Bookouture, for an ARC in return for an honest review.

Nora has recently has a miscarriage. So when a baby girl is left on her porch one night, with a note asking for her to care for her baby, how could Nora refuse? The note said the baby's name was Daisy.

Nora and Tom Swanson have only been married for a few years. Nora has a grown-up daughter, Isabel. Nora has had quite a few miscarriages, so when the baby was left on her porch, it seemed like a blessing in disguise. So they decide to lie and say that the baby is theirs.

This story is told mainly from Nora's perspective, but there were some points of view from Izzy too. I was quickly pulled into this story and I couldn't put the book down. The characters are well-developed and they all have secrets. There were plenty of good twists. I loved how the story ended. It was definitely not what I was expecting.

I would like to thank #NetGalley #Bookouture and the author #LGDavis for my ARC of #StolenBaby in exchange for an honest review/

I liked that this book, Stolen Baby by L.G. Davis, switched points of view giving you a more complete picture. The story centres around a mom, daughter and step-father. The daughter, Isobel is struggling with an eating disorder that she has beaten before but due to extreme stress in her life lately, has reared its ugly head again. The mother is to depressed to realize that her own daughter is struggling too, The mother had decided to undergo IVF with her husband after they decided they wanted a biological kid together (since Isobel is from a previous relationship). After the mom has lost 2 babies in a row, she slips into depression and doesn’t realize what is going on until it is almost too late. I found the pacing of this book to be a little slow for the beginning half of this book, then a climactic event occurs and second half of the book is a gripping telling of now each character deals with the fallout from that event.

Note:
Thank you to L.G. Davis and Bookouture for provide this ARC to NetGalley in exchange for my honest opinion and review.

This was a fast paced thriller that kept me on the edge of my seat. I do think you have to go into this with an open mind but remember it’s FICTION. 😆 The characters are unlikable (in a good way) and it draws you in so well that you just have to find out what happens. I do think there were unanswered questions by the end but still a great read!

Thank you to NetGalley and Bookouture for an advanced copy in exchange for my honest review.

This was a fun one!

I always suspend disbelief for books like this. That’s not a knock on the book or the genre. I just find I enjoy them way more if I don’t over analyze every single detail.

Nora and Tom have been married for almost a decade. Nora has a daughter, Isobel. After suffering multiple miscarriages, a baby is left on their doorstep. Now they have to hide the baby from everyone they know while they figure out a plan. They also have to navigate their own secrets…

I don’t want to give too much away, because with these thrillers, the twists are the best part. This was a FAST read! Very satisfying! I’ll read these toes of books all day z!

Thank you to NetGalley and Bookouture for the ARC!

This is my third LG Davis books and she always has amazing plot twists! I tried to guess this one from the beginning but I was wrong again 😅 Liz does a great job with her twists and turns and is always messing with my mind! This book releases on January 24 and you need to pick it up!

Thank you NetGalley, Bookouture and LG Davis for allowing me to read this arc before its release!

This pov story tells how Norma after many miscarriages finds a baby left on her doorstep with a note. Tom her husband agrees they will keep it if no-one comes after 7 days. Norma's daughter helps as much as possible so please to have her mum back. The action really takes off for me when the pov switches to the daughter. It deals with complex issues . Each character has their own secrets and as the story unfolds its filled with twists and turns. Its so much more than the title implies. Once the action started and the lies were unmasked I found this to be gripping and very real. I loved the rawness of reaction and the truth. The ending came too soon for me and felt like the possibility for a sequel. This is 4.5 stars rounded to 5. Thanks netgallery, author and publisher. Recommended to anyone who likes a mystery mixed with real life but is prepared to sit through padding

Dark, twisty and fast paced this one had me completely fooled. I didn’t see that ending coming. The characters were all deliciously flawed, but also credible and sympathetic and I could understand the reasons for their actions. Will keep you flipping the pages and holding your breath right to the end.

This book was a compelling, absorbing, totally addictive and a brilliant page-turner that hooks you in from the first page and doesn't let go until the very end!

The characters Nora, Isobel, Lauren, Tom and little Daisy if I had to pick a favourite I would choose Charlotte as I could imagine how she felt in her desperate search to find her baby Daisy but also Nora when she lost her baby and then one turns up on her doorstep the dilemma she faced.

I’d highly recommend this book and it’s definitely a must read when it comes out in Jan!

STOLEN BABY BY L.G. DAVIS
Release date set for the 28th of January 2025.
This was a good psychological thriller.
Fast paced and popcorn thriller book.
Twists and turns and full of suspense.
There's a very good ending.
First time reading this author and i'll read another.

The start of this book left me utterly incredulous that anyone would decide that keeping a baby that was left on their doorstep was acceptable. This feeling died down a little as I got to know the personalities of the various characters. This is an enjoyable read with a couple of great twists and an explosive ending. I haven't read any of this author's work in the past but I will seek them out in the future.

Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for an ARC of this book

Wttttfffff.
On one side I kinda see the dad's side.
But what if he's lying.
What if everyone's lying.
