<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>'I just want to be your friend.' She smiled at Lily, her dark brown eyes impossibly sincere. 'And to be a mother to Emma too, of course.' Her gaze flickered to Lily's sister, but only Lily saw her expression momentarily change - from warm and loving to something else. Something Lily didn't trust...</strong></p><p><br></p><p>Lily</strong> has always had a simple dream: to be happy like her parents were. Content in their sweet suburban home, nothing in life had phased her mother and father, not even when they'd had a 'surprise' second child, Emma</strong>, nearly twenty years after Lily.</p><p><br></p><p>But their love story was cut tragically short when - after a devastating battle with cancer - Lily's mother died. Lily was heartbroken, but also desperately worried about her grieving dad, not to mention five-year-old Emma.</p><p><br></p><p>So Lily is shocked and concerned when he suddenly decides to remarry, less than a year after her mother's death. It feels far too soon, and Lily finds herself furious with him - and his new wife, Maria</strong>, who can apparently do no wrong. She seems madly in love with Lily's dad and instantly bonds with Emma.</p><p><br></p><p>It's only Lily who can't trust her.</p><p><br></p><p>Who won't</em> trust her.</p><p><br></p><p>And when Emma goes missing - could Lily be right? What if the greatest danger to them all is the woman now living in their family home?</p><p><br></p><p>A totally gripping and unmissable psychological suspense novel about dark family secrets, perfect for fans of Shalini Boland, Claire McGowan and <em>Gone Girl</em>.</strong></p><p><br></p>Readers are loving <em>The Perfect Stepmother</em>: <p><br></p><p>'I was hooked from the first page</strong>. It was full of twists and turns and I was kept on the edge of my seat throughout!!</strong> That ending... Wow.' NetGalley reviewer, 5 stars</p><p><br></p><p>'A true thriller!</strong>... All of the secrets. All of the unknown. When you finally think you know, what is going on, there is a major plot twist! It is perfect!</strong> This is a psychological thriller. And if I could, I would highlight the "psychological" and make it big!' Goodreads reviewer, 5 stars</p><p><br></p>
