About this listen

Mia has her life in order. She is a grown up and enjoys a grown up's relationship with Pete. Not passionate or spontaneous, but solid. She knows he is 'the one'. But then she sees a text message on Pete's phone that throws her world into a spin. It is more than friendly, signed off with a kiss, and Mia has never heard of the sender, Liz. With her carefully mapped out life sliding out of control Mia will discover a side to herself she never knew existed, as she formulates a plan to win her happy ending. Because all's fair in love and war – isn't it?©2008 Lucy Dawson (P)2019 Bolinda Publishing Family Life Fiction Genre Fiction Psychological Romance Romantic Suspense Thriller & Suspense Women's Fiction Suspense Exciting

Well written, a little preposterous in parts but fiction is allowed to be, and well narrated for the most part.

Very entertaining

Lucy Dawson's thrillers are usually about relationships and families rather than murders, always told from the woman's perspective. This is no exception.

In this book, our hero, Mia finds evidence that her significant other is having a relationship with somebody else. The suspense is about whether she will manage to get rid of her partner's other woman and keep him for herself. Mia starts doing things that partly make you think she might be a little deranged herself, and partly make you anxious to find out whether she will get away with it - not unlike a soap opera.

Towards the end, we get a few changes in direction, raising the tension somewhat as you would expect from a good thriller. At times though it did begin to border on a Whitehall farce. I liked the last couple of lines of the book. A good final twist.

Like Lucy Dawson's other books (White Lies, The Memory, The Daughter, Everything You Told Me), I found this held my attention right from the start and all through the book. It was easy to follow without too much concentration, not to many characters, but just enough to keep the listener's attention.

I wasn't conscious of any out-of-place mannerisms from the narrator, Georgia Maguire. On that basis I reckon she did a really good job. There are some awful edits in the sound though.

Good easy listening, suspense thriller

Georgia is such an amazing narrator and this book was amazing such a good story I didn’t expect it to be so good

Incredible

Ending was very disappointing, A bit confusing in last chapter, I understood what was happening but I didn't get it, did he really have a full blown affair with Liz or not, according to him he didn't, according to her he did. I couldn't have not had it out with him at the off when she first knew he was seeing someone, her plans nearly backfired on her near ending.
I did enjoy it until near the end, it disappointed me greatly.
I couldn't recommend.

not anyone imparticular.

Like many people have said this book lacked a good ending which I was holding out for. Sadly that reflects back on the whole book making the overall story quite thin. The narrator was good but overall I was disappointed.

Desperate for a twist at the end…….

my third lucy dawson book this week..first was great. second one had also good plot but was weak on the finish. this is the same. builds up well. clever but again kind of runs into a dead end

another great story but falls flat at the end

This isn’t my usual type of book, I bought it in a 2 for 1 offer and I’m more crime and thrillers normally, but I really enjoyed it. It made me laugh out loud at times but I also felt the main character’s pain. I thought it well written and extremely well read, the narrator’s dead pan delivery was perfect for the funny parts. I particularly enjoyed the restaurant scenario, I’m sure it’s one most women will recognise!

Laugh Out Loud Funny And Very Sad

Got dissapointed at the ending. It gave a feeling of that author got bored and just ended it- not knowing how to continue it. The husband was getting off the hook.

A odd ending
