Who would you trust with your precious family?

Wanted: full-time, live-in help for expectant mother. Must be organised, friendly and willing to do anything.

Rachel is determined to be the perfect mother. She has a birth plan, with a playlist and a bag ready by the door. She’s chosen a lovely light cream paint for the nursery, and in wide-eyed, innocent Abbie she’s found the perfect person to help her with her baby.

After all, every mother needs a bit of help, don’t they?

But Rachel needs a little more than most.

She still makes sure her bedroom door is locked before she goes to sleep. She still checks the cameras that are dotted throughout the house.

Rachel trusts Abbie. Even if Abbie’s smiles don’t always reach her eyes, and the stories she tells about her past don’t always add up, it doesn’t matter.

Because Rachel knows better than to trust herself…

From the bestselling author of Her Husband’s Lover, this is a truly gripping story about how far people will go to find a family. Filled with tension and twists to keep you glued to every page, it is perfect for fans of Ruth Ware, Shari LaPena and The Girl on the Train.

Julia started off as a theatre director and playwright. While her children were growing up, she swerved into graphic design. After writing and illustrating two children’s books for an MA, she discovered that her great love was writing prose. The picture books were deemed too dark for publication, so, to save the children, she turned instead to writing for adults. Her first book, Cuckoo, was published in 2011, and she has been writing what she calls her Domestic Noir novels ever since. She also writes for TV and teaches on the Crime Writing MA at the University of East Anglia. She has three grown up children and lives in Brighton with her husband and two cats, Keith and Sandra.

Heidi Lynn’s Book Reviews

First, I want to thank Julia Crouch, Bookouture and NetGalley for providing me this book so I may bring you this review. 

WOW!!! Julia Crouch is a creative genius who really thought outside of the box in her latest psychological thriller The New Mother. Guaranteed you have NEVER read a book quite as unique, thrilling, somewhat relatable, eye opening, twisted, mind blowing and will make you second guess things about your own life possibly. This is a book that EVERYONE will be talking about so I suggest you go run out and get your copy today!!

If you are a fan of social influencers on Instagram or other social media this is the book for you. One thing that stood out to me in this book was she wrote in various instagram postings that include the hashtags and everything. However, instead of showing us the various pictures she described them to a T. 

I was smiling ear to ear as I could feel Abbie’s excitement as she got the job of Mother’s Helper to her ultimate favorite social influencer Rachel! Oh she was her biggest fan alright! It was the perfect job for her to get to know her better and take care of the soon to be baby. 

Oh it was so cute how they kept referring to the baby as Beansprout.

Too many times I found myself laughing like crazy! One time in particular between the thick tension between Wanda and Abbie. Oh they both could just go at it back and forth jab after jab!

Throughout this book you will learn not to judge a book by its cover because it is not always what it seems. 

Hold on tight because Julia throws you a lot of wicked twists and turns!! Don’t blink because you will literally be at the edge of your seat for this fast paced climatic ending.
