This title contains strong language and mature themes, including references to sexual violence, abuse of minors and animals, and suicide, that some listeners may find upsetting. Discretion is advised.

I just met my new son-in-law . . . And he’s my ex-husband.

They’re here. I watch them arrive from the kitchen window. My pregnant daughter and her new husband. They’ve barely known each other six months.

I greet him with a tight smile that he recognizes as fake.

Luke is no good for my beautiful, fragile Cerys. He’ll break her heart. I know that because he broke mine — when he was married to me.

I don’t know what he’s after. But I’m going to make it my business to find out.

Don’t underestimate me. I’ll do anything to keep my daughter safe.

Predictable but kept listening as enjoyed story. Could not stand the daughter Cerys, very unlikeable character! But if author enables you to have strong feelings good or bad towards a character I assume must mean well written story

What a horrible, selfish, spoilt daughter. I really , really struggled to listen to the book because of the ridiculous story line but as it went on I really enjoyed it. So I’m glad I stuck with it.

The daughter needed a good old fashioned telling off.
