Description

A mother. A son. His girlfriend. And the lie they’ll wish had never been told.
 
Laura has it all. A successful career, a long marriage to a rich husband, and a twenty-three-year-old son, Daniel, who is kind, handsome, and talented. Then Daniel meets Cherry. Cherry is young, beautiful, and smart but hasn’t led Laura’s golden life. And she wants it.
 
When tragedy strikes, a decision is made and a lie is told. A lie so terrible it changes their lives forever…
 
The Girlfriend is a taut and wickedly twisted debut psychological thriller—a novel of subtle sabotage, retaliation, jealousy and fear, which pivots on an unforgivable lie, and examines the mother–son–daughter-in-law relationship in a chilling new light.

    This author was new to me, and I’m looking forward to reading more of her books. I really enjoyed her style of writing and found myself cheering for “Mom”! The other main character was someone who you will “love to hate” - that’s how involved I got with the characters! A good read - very entertaining 😃 Nevreader
