I don't know how Daniel does is, given the amount of new novels he releases, but this is another crcking thriller, fast paced and had me wanting to keep reading. A swapped baby and a plan for revenge, I really didn't know where this one was going. But wow! Can't wait for the next one now!

Daniel Hurst takes us on another wild ride involving two women, 2 babies and the game of revenge. What links each woman will go to get revenge on the other was crazy! Such a well written book with an ending I did not predict, this book will stay with me for a while!

Did I spend a lot of time screaming at my kindle while reading this book? Yes, yes I did.
Did I want to jump into the book and throttle the characters? Also yes.
Did I see the twist coming? Absolutely not!
Daniel Hurst has done it again!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

What a crazy ride! Daniel Hurst is on top form with “The Baby Swap”, which starts on the post natal ward with one new mum secretly swapping her newborn for another!

Successful career woman, Avril, has everything. A high flying job, a great marriage, a beautiful home and now, a new baby. Jade, on the other hand, is single, struggling and has no idea how she will cope with her newborn.

The back story linking the two women and how they came to be where they are today was insane! Gripping, twisty and fuelled by a massive desire for revenge. The action packed ending had me holding my breath and then, the epilogue! O.M.G!

5 ⭐️ Thanks to Netgalley, Daniel Hurst and Bookouture, for an ARC in return for an honest review.

Another great book by this author. It's suspenseful and gripping and very emotional at the same time. 

I understood Jade's feelings and the need for revenge, but OMG this was revenge next level for me. 

I enjoyed every page of this book and I was waiting for the finale. Having read multiple books by this author already, I know there is always something very juice he keeps for last. And once again he did not let me down. Honestly, I was flabbergasted. Not in a million years would I have guessed this. 

Thank you, dear author, for turning a dreary and cold winter day in a very entertaining one. 5 stars

3.5 stars rounded up. This story is mad. In a good way. It follows two women who end up next to each other in the hospital after giving birth. One of them decides to switch their babies as an act of revenge.

This is an easy, quick read, it’s fairly short and I sped through it across two days. I enjoyed getting to know each of the women and how they know each other / what happened previously to make one want to switch their babies. It is a story of revenge which gets out of control. At about 70% in I started to wonder what the twist was going to be - as so far it was pretty much as I expected it to go (but enjoyably so). The major twist comes right near the end, and it was pretty shocking, but I must admit I wanted some more twists earlier on. Overall I enjoyed the ending and how it all wrapped up - although it is pretty crazy!

Would recommend for anyone who likes an easy read thriller with a dark and shocking twist. This was my first read by this author and I’ll definitely be trying some more. Thank you to NetGalley and Bookouture for a copy of this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Imagine giving birth, and just knowing deep down this isn’t the baby you gave birth to. And no one believes you. I was hooked from page one, and couldn’t imagine why someone would baby swap! Once I thought I knew what was going on, Daniel Hurst threw a wrench into it and I was shocked. More than one twist! A must read!
Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for allowing me to read this arc.

What an absolute fast paced thriller read this is from my favourite author with great twists and turns throughout.

I was engrossed in the storyline from the very beginning with great characters throughout, just brilliant storytelling with everything brought to a good conclusion.

I think this has to be one of Daniel's best books yet and I have read them all and I have no hesitation in recommending this fantastic book.

Thank you to Netgalley and Bookouture for this ARC, it will blow your socks off I am sure.

Unfortunately, I did not enjoy this book at all. The plot felt overly familiar and lacked originality, leaving me with little to invest in. The characters were unlikable, and I couldn’t help but feel sympathy for the two babies who were burdened with such awful parents. The supposed “twists” were more contrived than surprising, often feeling forced and out of place. By the time I reached the ending, I genuinely cringed—it felt rushed, incoherent, and disconnected from the rest of the story. Overall, it seemed like the book was hastily thrown together, with little to no editing or thoughtful critique. It’s a disappointing read, and I can’t recommend it.

The absolute plot twists this book has blows my mind, it's a shorter read but it doesn't hold back and keeps you going until the end!

Thank you NetGalley and Publisher for allowing me to read and review this book.

I very much enjoyed this book. The writing was great and the characters were well developed. I hope to read more from this author in the future.

The king of psychological thrillers does it again and doesn't disappoints. This book was a refreshening storyline and had me hook line and sinker. One that I could not out down due to the multiple twist, turns and jaw dropping ending. Highly recommend.

Oh my that epilogue???? What a wild ride this was, for how short this book is, I genuinely did experience every emotion under the sun.. don't get me started on the rollercoaster of picking sides my God ...💔 The question is how far would you go for revenge.... Plot follows two women and two babies...  --- I will leave it at that ---

I've said this before and I'll say it again Freida has competition🤩 there's something about Daniel's twists that'll leave you questioning what goes on inside his head ( in a good way of course ) 😂 hands down one of my favourite thriller authors! Working my way through his backlist is an absolute treat!

This is an incredible story of revenge and desperation. Babies swapped. Deception. So many twists and turns! I found it very difficult to put this down! Truly a good psychological thriller!

Yet another fantastic thriller from Daniel Hurst. A shocking and tense story that kept me turning the pages until the end, and wow, the twists and turns were just brilliant! The ending was great, overall a superb read, I loved it!

I received an arc copy of this book from Net Galley in exchange for my honest opinion of it. I really enjoyed this book with all of the twists but the description of the book was not really the order that events took place. It is told in parts by Avril and Jade and centers around the switching of their newborn babies in the hospital. It was so annoying how many times Jade said "erm". I felt like the ending was a little rushed and was not too happy with it.
Thank you to the publisher for granting me access to this early release.

The Baby Swap by Daniel Hurst is another unputdownable read from this prolific author who never disappoints.

Avril and Jade have just delivered their baby boys in a shared labour ward, and it is here where a plan for revenge is hatched and carried out. One of these new mothers is determined to destroy the other, and what better way than to take her precious baby?

This one is full of twists and turns, and the ending will leave you gasping. As with all of Daniel Hurst's novels, this one will have you thoroughly gripped from beginning to end. 4.5 stars

Many thanks to NetGalley and Bookouture for an ARC.

The Baby Swap is another winner from Daniel Hurst. If you’re a fan of his, even if you’ve never read anything, pick it up.

Gosh, I couldn’t put this down once I started it, and ended up finishing it in almost one sitting. The plot was deliciously far fetched and drew me in quickly. The ending delivered an almighty and unexpected twist. It’s definitely more than worthy of 5 big fat stars!

The twists and turns in this book were gripping. I could not put it down. I finished it all in one sitting! Spectacular premise, and fantastic execution!
