Summary
Her chest tightens， her heart speeding up。 The kitchen is chaos。 She steps on something hard， and looks down。 Toy dinosaurs are scattered everywhere。 But her son is nowhere – her baby boy is gone。
The police arrive。 She can’t look at her husband。 Instead， she studies the network of lines on her shaking hands。
Then her phone beeps with a voice message。 ‘Listen to it on speaker，’ says the detective。
A woman’s voice fills the air。
‘I’m assuming this is the Andrea Gately listed as a contact on the Missing Children of the World website。 I’m calling to let you know that I’ve given your details to the police。 Why are you using a picture of my son on a missing children’s website？ Why are you using it and where did you get it？’

This was my first Nicole Trope book and it did not disappoint！ What a perfectly written psychological thriller。I LOVED the dual POV in this one。 My heart really went out to Andrea as she tried to navigate life in her new home with her not so honest husband。 Gabby appears as a saving Grace in Andrea’s life - however， just as all thriller readers know， things are not always as they seem！ I really enjoyed the writing when we were reading Gabby’s POV， the “offness” was so fun to read。 If you love a This was my first Nicole Trope book and it did not disappoint！ What a perfectly written psychological thriller。I LOVED the dual POV in this one。 My heart really went out to Andrea as she tried to navigate life in her new home with her not so honest husband。 Gabby appears as a saving Grace in Andrea’s life - however， just as all thriller readers know， things are not always as they seem！ I really enjoyed the writing when we were reading Gabby’s POV， the “offness” was so fun to read。 If you love a twisty， fast paced thriller will an openly satisfying ending， this is for you！ 。。。more

This is another great psychological thriller by Nicole Trope！ Told through two points of view， Andrea， who is a young pregnant mother and Gabby， the woman across the street。 Both of them are keeping secrets from the other。This is a well written， gripping and fast paced book that I read in a day because I was so involved in it。Highly recommended！

Loved itI am really loving the books by this author！ It goes back and forth between 2 women who live across the street from each other。 Each one of them feels that the other is hiding secrets from them。 There are so many lies that it made my head spin， BUT only in a good way。 Once I felt I had figured it all out， I would turn the page to find I was wrong。 Super story & great read。 I highly recommend it to everyone。

Thank you to Nicole Trope and Bookouture for this advanced reader copy。 The Stay At Home Mother is an engaging and page turning thriller which I personally found really thought provoking。 Very relevant for today's climate of 'living our lives online' and the constant need for information sharing and comparison against other 'perfect mums'， I enjoyed the way this book tackled such topics。 A fast paced and exciting read， I thoroughly enjoyed it。 Thank you to Nicole Trope and Bookouture for this advanced reader copy。 The Stay At Home Mother is an engaging and page turning thriller which I personally found really thought provoking。 Very relevant for today's climate of 'living our lives online' and the constant need for information sharing and comparison against other 'perfect mums'， I enjoyed the way this book tackled such topics。 A fast paced and exciting read， I thoroughly enjoyed it。 。。。more

Andrea is heavily pregnant & exhausted。 She is struggling to cope with three year old Jack。 Her husband is often out， presumably at work & they have just moved into a run-down house， leaving her friends a long way away。 Gabby is a stay at home mum with a teenage boy， Flynn。 Her husband is working abroad & she spends her time writing parenting advice on Facebook。 She soon befriends Andrea & Jack， inviting them over & letting Jack play with Flynn's out-grown toys。 The book is written from the poin Andrea is heavily pregnant & exhausted。 She is struggling to cope with three year old Jack。 Her husband is often out， presumably at work & they have just moved into a run-down house， leaving her friends a long way away。 Gabby is a stay at home mum with a teenage boy， Flynn。 Her husband is working abroad & she spends her time writing parenting advice on Facebook。 She soon befriends Andrea & Jack， inviting them over & letting Jack play with Flynn's out-grown toys。 The book is written from the point of view of both women。 I liked & felt sorry for Andrea， But there was something 'off' about Gabby。 It is difficult to say much without revealing the plot。 I have read a number of Nicole Trope's previous books but this one didn't grab me as much as earlier ones。 It all felt as if it had been done before。 It was interesting enough to want to finish it & the end was a bit of a surprise！ Thanks to Netgalley & the publisher for letting me read & review this book。 。。。more

Andrea and Gabby become neighbors and quickly become friends。 Gabby pursues the relationship a little more than Andrea does。 Andrea has a three year old son and is pregnant and Gabby has a teenage son and is alone a lot。 She gets bored and needs a friend。Everyone has secrets they don’t share with anyone; especially a new friend。 So far though， they seem to have pretty normal lives。 Gabby even has a blog that she writes about teenage kid issues。 Her son Flynn is giving her a hard time and she lik Andrea and Gabby become neighbors and quickly become friends。 Gabby pursues the relationship a little more than Andrea does。 Andrea has a three year old son and is pregnant and Gabby has a teenage son and is alone a lot。 She gets bored and needs a friend。Everyone has secrets they don’t share with anyone; especially a new friend。 So far though， they seem to have pretty normal lives。 Gabby even has a blog that she writes about teenage kid issues。 Her son Flynn is giving her a hard time and she likes to chat about this with other mothers。 An event occurs in which Gabby is irresponsible with Andrea’s three year old son and now Andrea is starting to feel frustrated with Gabby。 At one point they have a conversation and end up sharing some personal details of their marriages and lives。 Who is telling the truth？ We find out about three quarters of the way through the book that things are not as they seem for Gabby or Andrea but one of them is not a good person at all！ I really like this book and the story is good。 The only thing I would have liked is to see a little more devious behavior throughout。 It takes a while to get to the first twisty part。 The ending is satisfying and explains it all。 I think Nicole Trope is a great author and I am definitely going to be starting a collection of her books for my bookshelves！ 。。。more

（Thanks to Netgalley for the ARC in exchange for an honest review。）This is the first book I have read by this author and unfortunately， I was not impressed。 It was a VERY slow read and I just couldn't get into it。 At about the 50% mark， it started to pick up， and then at the 70% mark， it started to zoom by。 The ending was good; it even included a twist in the epilogue。 It's just a shame it took so long to get exciting。 （Thanks to Netgalley for the ARC in exchange for an honest review。）This is the first book I have read by this author and unfortunately， I was not impressed。 It was a VERY slow read and I just couldn't get into it。 At about the 50% mark， it started to pick up， and then at the 70% mark， it started to zoom by。 The ending was good; it even included a twist in the epilogue。 It's just a shame it took so long to get exciting。 。。。more

Looks like I’m in the minority， and had high hopes。 The story had me interested the first quarter of the book， but I didn’t enjoy the writing， conversations seemed unnatural and I figured out the twists pretty early on。 I kept reading just to finish。 The main twist wasn’t that interesting to me。 *Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for an advanced copy！

This is the seventh book that I’ve read by this author and they just keep on getting better and better。 As soon as I finished reading the prologue I just knew that this was my type of read。 It’s one of those books that once you pick it up you’ll really struggle to put it back down again。 And who doesn’t love a book like that。 This is a fast paced read packed full of twists and turns。 I highly recommend this book for fans of domestic / psychological suspense thrillers。

I’m not sure if it is officially a trope or if it has a name， but I’ve been loving books where the plot centers around the reader knowing there is more to the story than they officially know at the start。 The small hints that we can guess about （and are most often wrong LOL） but that slowly unfold throughout the read。 That describes this book to a tee。This is not my first read by the author and I love her outrageous storylines。 You will not have read this plot anywhere else。 It starts off wit I’m not sure if it is officially a trope or if it has a name， but I’ve been loving books where the plot centers around the reader knowing there is more to the story than they officially know at the start。 The small hints that we can guess about （and are most often wrong LOL） but that slowly unfold throughout the read。 That describes this book to a tee。This is not my first read by the author and I love her outrageous storylines。 You will not have read this plot anywhere else。 It starts off with a bang with the voicemail about using someone else’s child's picture in the missing post。 Then it casually switches to two neighbors that live across the street from each other that both harbor secrets。 They both seem so normal， but are they？ I had all kinds of wild ideas about the secrets the story hinted to and I can say I did have one right， but the rest were not even close to what I was imagining。 I love when I can guess something correct in a twisted book， but only when it was not an obvious guess。And just when you are let in on all the secrets， there is one more ready to catch you off guard。 I really liked this one。 It kept me guessing （even what I was able to guess， I didn’t know for sure until the reveal）， it was a quick read， and the writing style made it so easy to read。 I’m not a mom so I didn’t really associate with either main character， but that did not stop my enjoyment。If you are looking for a quick， can’t put down book， you should give this one a try。 。。。more

This was a great read。 Full of twists and turns that you think you know， then realise you don't。Andrea is a likeable character that you have a lot of empathy for - she loves her husband but ends up in a situation through him and through no fault of her own。I was suspicious of Gabby from the start but didn't really know why。 Something just didn't feel right about her。 As the story unfolds， we learn much more about her - or so we think！Definitely a recommended 5 🌟 read from me。 This was a great read。 Full of twists and turns that you think you know， then realise you don't。Andrea is a likeable character that you have a lot of empathy for - she loves her husband but ends up in a situation through him and through no fault of her own。I was suspicious of Gabby from the start but didn't really know why。 Something just didn't feel right about her。 As the story unfolds， we learn much more about her - or so we think！Definitely a recommended 5 🌟 read from me。 。。。more
