The perfect wife. The perfect life. The perfect nightmare.

Hope is a beautiful 'trad wife' social media star with a beefcake husband, six cute kids and millions of followers of their picture-perfect life.

When they employ English content creator Melissa to promote their brand she has no idea what she has signed up for.

Behind the veneer of domestic bliss lies a nightmare - and she will be lucky to escape with her life.

A twisty, darkly comic thriller perfect for fans of Bella Mackie and Julie Cohen.

The narrator is excellent. The story has well rounded characters and enough twists to keep me intrigued.

Had to keep listening

I have just listened to the book Yesteryears and I had to check I had to check it hadn't been re-titled not sure which book came first but these two books are very similar. To be honest I didn't finish this one because I was getting them confused because both plots were so similar

Heard it before?

I wasn’t sure I was going to enjoy this. I thought it was going to be just an easy read but I found myself being drawn in to the story and the heroine. Well written and a great performance, a must read as I’ve never heard about a trad Wife before

Brilliant ending

I enjoyed this book so much. found myself caring about Melissa very soon into starting it, she is a fantastic character. it was funny in the right places but also took so many dark turns. I want to know how the rest of Melissas and Willows life turns out.

so many dark turn I wasn't expecting.
