I thought this was an okay read. I didn't fully get into it, I wasn't taken with the characters, and I found that off-putting wouldn't put anyone else off reading it though.

3.75**** This was definitely a whirlwind. The suspense was high and it delivered. The plot twist got me. My mouth dropped! It was a quick read but I wish it ended differently. If there is a sequel, then I’ll understand. Overall, I enjoyed the author’s writing style and look forward to reading more from her!

I was so excited when L.G Davis posted that Stolen Baby was in Netgalley. I was even more excited when my request was approved!

I had anxiety waiting for the next thing to happen at every page I read. I had to know how the story would end! I had figured out part of it but def so many other twists and turns I did not see coming.

If you want a non stop thriller this one is for you!

I thought about what I would do if faced with the same situation I don’t think you fully know what you would do until ur in it.

This is a brilliant read. Full of twists and turns and it blew my mind. I couldn't put it down and needed to finish it to find out out how it ended. 5* from me

Lots of twists and turns in this family domestic drama with a shocking ending! We see a dysfunctional but seemingly happy family trying their best to add another child. As we progress through the story, it gets more tense with each chapter leading us to see all the secrets kept by these members who set out to deceive.

Many thanks to NetGalley and Bookouture for this ARC!

This book kept me on the edge of my seat. I loved how it progressed by switching to a new character’s point of view. The last person I expected was the guilty one!!

Wow this author has done it again another gripping thriller. L.G Davis is one of my favourite authors so I couldn’t wait to read this and wow was definitely not disappointed I loved it one of my favourite read this year. I loved how the characters were written so realistic and the story was believable. There was so many mixed emotions throughout I felt for the main character at times. The writing style was great definitely drew me in from first page until the very last.

Nora has a daughter but has been trying to have a baby for a while it has ended in multiple miscarriages so when she opens the door and there’s a baby with a note saying look after her. But who is the baby mum what danger has Nora put herself and her family in my opening her to door to a baby.

I can not recommend this book enough I loved everything about it and can’t wait to recommend it to everyone. Thanks to netgalley and the publisher for the opportunity to read this excellent thriller.

Stolen Baby takes some stick-with-it-ness. I wanted to DNF around the first 100 pages. The only thing that kept me reading were the reviews. I'm glad that I kept at it! Terrific book for mystery/suspense lovers. Just don't give up...

Stolen Baby by L.G. Davis. An interesting read although with a hard to believe premise and circumstances within the story. The story was fast paced and did have some unexpected twists and turns Nora was a hard character to reliate to.
Thank you to Bookouture, L.G. Davis and NetGalley for the opportunity to preview the book.

This is wow wow wow read.

It is a good story, and it is just a story as there is no reality to it (it's a bit far fetched) and I really enjoyed it.

There is a lot of emotion, a found baby, a couple who tried to have children and couldn't and I couldn't help but fell for them.

It is dramatic, twisty and with that ending I was shook....

A gripping and emotional thriller that keeps you turning the pages. Plenty of shocking twists and turns. Brilliant, I really enjoyed it!

This is the first LG David book that I have read; I requested it as an ARC read from Netgalley for which I’m really grateful!

Unfortunately, I was disappointed with the book. And I’ll try and set out why constructively;

PROS:
The book is fast-paced
I did want to keep reading to find out what would happen

CONS
I found the whole story unbelievable ; from the mother accidentally telling her daughter that her father was dead, the unrealistic dialogue between mother and daughter, the very unrealistic first week of life with a newborn, instantly calling a Dr when the baby cries, and to 3 adults, including the Dr not questioning going to the police about a missing child?!
I found the book too fast-paced and chaotic.

For me unfortunately the whole plot was unrealistic and quite laughable at times. But with that said, I did keep reading. I wouldn’t rush to pick up another LG Davis book.

I think this has to be the best book from this author and I have thoroughly enjoyed them all.

Great storytelling telling from the very beginning with an explosive ending, everything explained perfectly with great characters.

Thank you to Netgalley and Bookouture for this brilliant ARC which I have no hesitation in recommending. I look forward to the next one from this author.

My thanks to netgalley and the publisher for my copy.

This book provided a captivating experience. Initially, I thought I had figured out the child's ancestry,; wrong. The plot twists kept surprising me, and the resolution was a profound narrow escape that concluded the story effectively. Having read all of Davis's works, I can confidently say this is her greatest achievement yet.

What a tangled weave of deceit this book holds! Nora, her husband Tom, and her 19-year-old daughter from a past relationship, Isobel, have just been through something horrific as a family. Nora and Tom have been trying to have their own baby, and after two miscarriages, Nora gets pregnant again. This time, she carried the baby much longer, long enough for them to name her Danielle. But again, fate played a cruel joke, and she lost Danielle as well.

Nora already suffers from anxiety and depression, and this third loss has her a shell of herself. Just as she’s at her darkest, her doorbell rings. At the door is a newborn baby with a note saying her name is Daisy, and to please take care of her. Nora takes this is a sign, and after a week of no police reports or visits, they decide to keep Daisy and raise her as the child they just lost. (Just one of the first times you’ll need to suspend reality in this book).

The rest of the book is all spoiler territory! Yes, this book is very unrealistic, but it’s also very entertaining and definitely a page turner. I knew one of the big twists immediately, but there were many more twists to come that shocked me. Much of the book is from Nora’s POV, but when it switches to Isobel’s, I think the story takes a turn for the better. I didn’t feel much for any of the characters, and I thought the whole thing was slightly cheesy, but I still enjoyed this book a lot - it’s just going to go in the popcorn thriller category for me. 3.5 stars, rounded up.

(Thank you to Bookouture, L.G. Davis and NetGalley for the ARC in exchange for my review. This book is slated to be released on January 24, 2025.)

Isobel moves back home from college after a fight with her best friend. Her mother is recovering from another miscarriage/death of her baby. One night, a baby shows up on the doorstep with a note asking them to take care of her. While, I knew immediately who the father was, I was a little shocked to see who the mother way. This book tells the story from Isobel and Nora's perspectives. There is a lot of suspense here. I do wish it wouldn't have ended so abruptly, but maybe there will be a sequel??? I feel like a lot of things were left open.

Wow! This book was soooo good! After suffering a miscarriage, Nora finds a baby on her door step. This begins a Rollercoaster ride of many twists and turns. I will be recommending this author everywhere. This is my first book by her, and can't wait to read more!

This was a strong concept and enjoyed the psychological thriller element that I was looking for. The overall feel worked with the storyline and how the characters were used in this universe. L.G. Davis has a strong writing style and was engaged from start to finish. It had that tension that I was looking for and was glad I read this.
