I LOVED THIS BOOK!
The twists, turns and slow yet steady suspense as the plot thickened in this story were intense!
Two, once upon a time best friends are now not friends. What has happened?

The secrets, guilt and fear that Ava has attempted to squash for years, are now leaking out.
Emily- once Ava's sidekick, is trying so hard to get back into Ava's life.
She will do anything and I mean anything to win back her old friends love!

This is one heck of a journey that I still cannot stop thinking about! My heart is still pounding!
If you enjoy a good mystery and psychological thriller then for sure this is for you!

Thank you to @NetGalley and to @Bookouture for this amazing ARC and allowing me to provide my own review.
Well done!

Ava and Emily meet when they are both pregnant and become fast friends. Then something happens (which we don't find out until later in the book), and Ava pulls away from Emily. Emily would do anything to be friends with Ava again. To her delight, she runs into Ava at school one day and they end up switching houses because Ava's daughter does not feel safe. A lot happens in this book once they switch houses. Just how far will Emily go? And what secrets are all of these people hiding?

Emily and Ava were friends during their pregnancy, and then Ava decides she can't be friends with her anymore. They bump into each other at school and before they know it, they are switching houses for a few nights. Emily is desperate to get back in Ava's life. Just how far will she go? Who will get hurt in the process?

One word gripping! If you're looking for atmosphere, drama and suspense then this is definitely book for you!

This book was totally unexpected and explosive, but you'll need to read it to find out why! I was glued to my kindle all evening until l finished it and devoured it in one sitting! I never expected the ending at all totally shocked me!

This is the first book I've read from this author and now I'm a firm fan! It was hard to pick who I liked as a character but at the start of the book I liked Lexi.

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 stars from me!

When you have experienced something tragic, you often struggle with feelings of guilt. Even if it has been proven that you are completely innocent, it can still be difficult to shake off this feeling. So, what do you do? To prevent anything else dramatic from happening, you may become overprotective toward certain people while pushing away others who are dealing with just as much grief as you are.

The result: One person may turn against you because they feel suffocated, jeopardizing your good relationship, while another may distance themselves even further. In the end, what remains?

This is an incredibly captivating book. It is filled with suspense, unexpected twists, and deep emotions. I figured out a few things on my own, which I always enjoy, but I was even more thrilled by the surprises I didn’t see coming.

I am also a big fan of stories told from multiple perspectives. The transformation Ava undergoes is beautiful to witness, and I found Emily to be a complex and interesting character. The daughters of both women also grow throughout the story.

The writing style is incredibly smooth, with a great rhythm throughout the book.

I am a very satisfied reader. 5 stars.
Thank you!

So many twists and turns. This book had me reeling. I thought I had it figured out but I was wrong. This book will keep you up all night.
