This is a dark, yet compelling, story. Immersive, with flawed characters, some more redeemable than others. The narrator is excellent.

Compelling story

Owhhh this one had a tight grip on me! I love how it all interlinked & combined each others stories. I was on edge through out the last couple chapters and it’s left me wanting to know more of what happened after! Brilliantly done

I liked the narrator’s voice , she read with emotion as the characters changed. It’s nice to hear inflection.

This was an interesting idea and I thought Ms Huber dealt with it sensitively. I felt it wasn't just about having or not having babies, but also what happens when you marry someone for the wrong reasons. That having money can't sort out everything that ails you. I very much connected with Julie and Sharon, but found Caro not very likeable. I didn't really get the whole bit about Caro being "accidentally drawn into the underworld of drugs". It wasn't like that at all and didn't, I felt, add anything to the story. Almost as if the publisher had said, "Let's spice it up with a drugs angle". It felt superfluous and pointless. Excellent narrating by Anna Parker-Naples, who had a lot of voice acting of numerous characters and turned in a top notch performance. Not my favourite book by Linda Huber, but she's a good writer so I'll be coming back for more.

Interesting concept

I enjoyed the narration. The story was a little predictable but easy listening and well paced.
