About this listen

What if the perfect life you envy was rotten to the core?

Three brand-new friends. Three very different families. Way too many secrets.

Gisela, Sally and Kate become close when they move into the same new housing estate. But behind their shiny front doors, each has something to hide.

Gisela’s Facebook profile is plastered with photos of her high-achieving son - #soproud; her teenage daughter - #bestfriends; and her gorgeous husband - #lovemyhubs. She’s the envy of everyone she knows, but how long can she keep covering up the truth?

Sally is married to her soul mate - or so the champagne glasses glinting in front of another tropical sunset seem to suggest. But what will it take for her friends to realise the life she claims to adore is breaking her heart?

Kate is a single mum. She uses Facebook to keep an eye on her teenage daughter but claims her own life is too boring to post anything herself. But maybe Kate wants to sit below the radar because she doesn’t want anyone to look too closely and start asking questions about her past....

Three lives collide in this gripping story about friendship, motherhood and marriage and the façade of perfection people present to the world.

Great listen!

First I’ve read of this author. Took me a while to get my head around all of the characters but by the end I felt I knew them all personally. Will definitely look for more of her books

Relatable and Endearing

A particularly enjoyable story for women over 30. I laughed and got emotional and found myself nodding in agreement in certain moments. The characters were well written and as the layers were peeled back, a real affection for the characters was established.

Drama

I read this book on a recommendation and truly loved it and can't wait to read another of Kerry's books. The way she bought the character's in her book to an ending that was simply amazing
