About this listen

From the New York Times bestselling author of The Younger Wife and The Mother-in-Law with new novel Darling Girls out soon.

Fern Castle works in her local library. She has dinner with her twin sister Rose three nights a week. And she avoids crowds, bright lights and loud noises as much as possible. Fern has a carefully structured life and disrupting her routine can be ... dangerous.

When Rose discovers that she cannot fall pregnant, Fern sees her chance to pay her sister back for everything Rose has done for her. Fern can have a baby for Rose. She just needs to find a father. Simple.

Fern's mission will shake the foundations of the life she has carefully built for herself and stir up dark secrets from the past, in this quirky, rich and shocking story of unexpected love.

I listen to audio books while in the car but this one came with me everywhere. I pressed “play” every spare moment I got. I didn’t want it to end. I loved each character then hated them then loved them again as the plot twisted and turned. The narrator was outstanding and represented each character superbly. The only thing I didn’t like was that it came to an end.

Without doubt one of the best I’ve ever bought
