About this listen

Everyone has secrets.

YouTube baking sensation April Masterson knows the secret to the perfect gooey brownies. Or how to make key lime squares that will melt in your mouth. But if you keep watching her offline, you may find out some other secrets about April; secrets she’d rather you didn’t know - like where did her son go when he snuck out of the house? What was she doing with the local soccer coach behind fogged windows? And what’s buried in her backyard?

Everyone has secrets. Some are worse than others. April’s secrets are enough to destroy her. I’ll make sure of that.

So far, this is for sure my favourite by F. Mcfadden. It's a bit of a slow burn, but it becomes so exciting, It's really worth it. Personaly, I didn't mind the slow pace because of amazing naration and story that had a Desperate housewives vibe which I loooved. Overall, great story, character build and plot twists.

A slow burn but SO worth it!

I had the audiobook version narrated by Alyson Krawchuk who does a good job with distinct voices for each of the main characters.

April Masterton is a you tube baking sensation. While recording for her baking chanel she left her 7yr old son Bobby playing in the yard, she only goes to look for him when she gets a text to say your son isn’t where you think he is. The texts keep coming which divulge secrets April doesn’t want revealing.

The first half is from April’s POV. Then the POV and perspective changes. It starts slowly, and feels like a character study then things step up a gear. The second half is eye opening.

April really isn’t a likeable character, but then non of them are. They come across as self serving rich suburban mothers, but they are very focused on what they want.

The foundation laying of this one was a little bit drawn out for me, which has affected my rating. I’m not sure how I feel about the ending.
It has plenty of revelations twists and turns and is an easy enjoyable listen.

Slow start but plenty of reveals and twists
