Summary

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.

Great performance by the reader and I enjoyed the story. Worth a listen even for non religious points of view

Good listen

I liked the performance and the concept but the execution fell flat for me. I see it being marketed as a darkly comedic thriller, but in my opinion there wasn't any comedy in it and it lacks a lot of content warnings. I found it frustrating how for the entire book the narrator makes comments about what she really knows and instead of this being revealed organically, she just decides to reveal it to the reader- it felt very anticlimactic.

It was okay

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Really great concept and idea. There’s so much I want to say, but I don’t want to give anything away so you have to listen to it for yourself

Really enjoyed this!
