Lisa Marco has had to face the bitchy clique of school mums for years, ever since her fall out with Christina Valdecchi, the mum of her daughter's best friend. The fun parent that never misses a chance to remind Lisa she doesn't measure up. Lisa was taught that being a good parent meant making the hard choices. She understands why Christina's 'friendship parenting' approach makes her fun, but Lisa's priority is keeping her daughter safe, even if she fears it's driving her daughter away. But tonight when Christina and Lisa get the call that every parent dreads, they will have to confront the choices that brought them here. They say mothers know best, but how well do they really know their daughters?
Wow!!! It was terrific.
Thanks to NetGalley and Aria & Aries, Head Of Zeus for giving me an advance copy.

Wow what a fantastic book this was wasn’t to sure if I would have liked it at first but once I got into it fantastic. It was my first book I have read from this author and it certainly won’t be the last can’t wait to read more. It was gripping read which had me glued to my kindle didn’t want to put it down. Highly recommended. Thanks to netgalley and the publisher for my advanced copy.

This is the first book I’ve read from this author and it was a really good read, it had everything in it, the ending I didn’t expect which made it all the better

Another fabulous read from this author. Well written characters with many being easily relatable to. The whole story had me gripped from the word go. My thanks to netgalley and the publisher for my copy. This gets a big five stars from me.

A great mystery thriller. It was very hard to put down. I enjoyed it very much. A few good twists in it

I couldn’t put this down I loved it ! Was full of craziness mysteries and secrets my favourite kind of book. It’s an interesting gripping story showing the relationship between a mother and her daughter. I liked the character they were relate-able and real
Over all a good mystery thriller which I really enjoyed.

I was once told by my mother never get involved if your child falls out with another child because they time the adults are at war the kids are back to being friends...the mums in this book should have taken that advice.
Good read with a few things going on...the playground politics, the mother/daughter relationship and challenges in raising kids
Fairly strong plot that keeps your interest and characters that are believable but overall it wasn't my favourite and I have read many books like it. Good all the same an ideal read for holidays

This is a great read, exploring the dynamics of mother/daughter relationships and the fall out when boundaries are not put in place. The tension racks up and I did wonder what I’d do in each mother’s situation. Loved it!

Playground politics are so much worse when they involve the parents rather than the children of any school. And the case of Christina and Lisa is no exception.

The two mothers are polar opposites when it comes to parenting approaches, with Lisa paying the price for being more thoughtful and less fun in her attempts to raise her daughter.

Even after the two of them have a falling out, there is no way to escape, because their daughters are best friends. And unsurprisingly, Christina benefits from being the mother that everyone wishes they had - because really, having a fun mother is just so much more...fun.

Except there's no fun and games on offer when things go badly wrong, and both mothers find themselves in frighteningly similar situation. Which of them, if either, will find their parenting style validated now?

This is a really interesting story, showing the complex range of mother daughter-dynamics and inevitably making readers who have daughters think about where they fit into the parenting spectrum.

The characters are relatable, and their horror at their predicament is all too believable. An engrossing read, it gets 3.5 stars.
