About this ebook

A lie will save one family. The truth will destroy another.
Which would you choose?

The emotional page-turner that will have you hooked, for fans of Susan Lewis and Amanda Prowse

I don’t know how to tell you what I did.

Would you read a letter never meant to be opened? Would you want to know secrets never meant to be told? Or should a woman's mistakes stay buried?

An unfinished letter was hidden amongst Tara and Emerson’s best friend’s things after her suicide. Noelle was the woman they entrusted to deliver their precious babies into the world, a beloved friend.

Her suicide shocked them both. But her legacy could destroy them. For her letter reveals a terrible secret that challenges everything they thought they knew. Taking them on a journey that will irrevocably change their own lives – and the life of a desperate stranger – forever.

Ratings and reviews

Predicted every 'twist' at least two or three chapters before they happened. Found everything very predictable and boring. Very shallow and empty characters who I didn't really connect with

This is a good book i thought of it as easy reading .I would put this book somewhere in the middle of cathcookson and murder she wrote.i liked how u got to see it from everyones view but i did sometimes feel like she wrote it to lovey dovey .

It was very good, 4stars means one of the best books for me, I use 5stars rarely; only for something truly outstanding, that is why I hate eBays insistence on giving 5 stars, 5 should be reserved for exceptional in my opinion...
