About this ebook

BRAND NEW FROM SALLY RIGBY AND AMANDA ASHBY

She’ll do anything to protect her family...

From the moment I met Nathan, a widower with two small children, I knew I would do anything for him. Sam and Sienna were both desperate for a mother and I knew I was perfect for them. I would raise them as my own, love them like my own.

I would die for them.

So when a missing teenager is found lying on the side of the road, my first through is for my precious kids. Are they home? Are they safe?

And then I discover something much worse. That the children I’ve raised could somehow be involved...

But I made a promise that I would protect my family at all costs.

Even if the consequences are deadly....

Ratings and reviews

Wow! This is one of those stories that you keep on guessing who the culprit is only to discover you were wrong! A beautifully constructed plot, with relatable characters who very much like many families do not talk much and keep secrets from each other. Secrets erode relationships and instead of protecting they destroy. One also has to bear in mind that not everything is as it seems! Great story, fast-paced, well-written, and highly recommended!

Libby marries Nathan who has twin children. A young girl goes missing and it points to Sam her stepson. The story line leads you in many directions of individuals that are involved the abduction. Suspicion of her husband and stepson being involved. An ending that was unexpected.

not very exciting I found this book very childish and repetitive
