About this deal

As such, she is less than enthused when someone comes to her door and tells her that the teenage girl she raised isn’t hers. Fifteen years ago, Allison’s baby was taken from the hospital by someone else.

What happens if one day both women just POOF…disappear? Who, if anyone will come searching for them? Will their lives unravel, revealing secrets no one could imagine?! That includes themes of love, parenting, honesty, and family. People, regardless of the times they lived, struggle with the same problems. For that reason, Adele is certain in the ability of her books to appeal to the sensibilities of readers in a variety of age ranges. All across the USA, people are showing up dead. The deaths don't appear to be connected in any way until one particular death occurs and gets the Secretary of Defense's attention. He arranges for a task force to investigate.Lucy isn’t happy. She was the perfect wife and mother. But Rose was the perfect mistress and she had the capacity to keep Peter happy in ways that escaped Lucy’s grasp.

The author’s childhood home was a matriarchy that presented her many opportunities to interact with much older women, not to mention listening in on their stories as they raised up, supported and tore one another down for various reasons. Alison has nothing to complain about. Her life is charmed. Her home is a happy place, made so by her husband Jeff and their brilliant daughter Katherine. Alison’s life revolves around Katherine. Kai marries a handsome and very wealthy businessman. Neither wants children. She lives a glamorous life…filled with entertaining and other meaningless tasks.I listened to the book and was thrilled with the narrator! She managed so many speech patterns and accents I often though there was more than one performer. As for the mystery, I guessed most of it incorrectly but at least the culprit was someone I suspected. That ending…well, it left me speechless. Get ready for a journey you won’t want to interrupt and some clever twists. I couldn’t put the book down because I just had to know whodunit. I was kept guessing the whole way through. I love those books where you decide what the deal is and then realise that it can't possibly be and then you end up having to question your entire life. Adele Parks MBE is one of the most-loved and biggest-selling women's fiction writers in the UK. She has sold over 4 million books and her work has been translated into 30 different languages.

Devoted wife and mother, Martha, discovers her husband’s infidelity. She finds she has two choices: hide away behind the school runs and home baking or have amazing sex with an inappropriate stranger. Who’d have thought she’d find true love swinging from the chandeliers? I’ve only read one other book by Ms. Parks but found it very enjoyable, so I jumped at the chance to read this one. The cover is absolutely beautiful and grabbed my attention the first time I saw it. This domestic thriller has some awesome twists. Some I saw coming, but others were a complete surprise! I highly recommend it! I have to be a little vague now to avoid giving spoilers . . . It’s the fallout from information discovered during the police investigation that I found most interesting. I felt Parks did a terrific job with the family dynamics in this book. What behaviours do people take on to play their designated role (wife, husband, parent, child) in their family? Who is keeping secrets? Who is keeping confidences? How does this impact individuals and the family unit when a member of the family disappears? And how do you adjust to the knowledge that you might not know those closest to you as much as you thought? Parks’ astute observations certainly provided food for thought.Anna and Zoe are twins. Identical in appearance, utterly different in personality, they share a bond so close that nothing - or no one - can rip them apart. Neil and Nat are a beautifully matched couple. Among other things, they hate marmite and opera, they love smelly cheese and the missionary position and they both absolutely do not want children. Then, suddenly, Neil is practically begging her for a baby, causing Nat to wonder if he really is the man she should be with. Is it possible that someone from her past could actually be “the one”? I thought so many times I knew who had her, then something else would happen and I'd change my mind. Good read that keeps you on your toes.
