Description

An addictive, page-turning psychological thriller about a mother of one who achieves sudden fame through Instagram as a parent influencer. THOUSANDS OF ONLINE FRIENDS. IT ONLY TAKES ONE TO DESTROY YOU. Erin lives an idyllic life by the seaside with her baby boy and Australian fiance. She's upbeat and happy - a natural mum. At least that's what her thousands of followers on Instagram think. In reality, Erin is struggling with anxiety and finding it difficult to connect with her screaming son. So, when an agent offers to make her the biggest Instamum out there, she can't refuse. And when Amanda, a family friend who's visiting from Australia, says she'll move in and babysit to help make it happen, it seems like the stars have finally aligned for Erin's exciting new career. But there's something Amanda isn't telling her. Something that will destroy Erin's carefully curated persona online. ___________________________ Praise for HAPPY EVER AFTER- 'Kept me gripped and kept me guessing' Erin Kelly, author of He Said/She Said 'Excellent domestic noir, chillingly plausible... I loved the ending' Jo Spain, author of The Confession 'An absorbing story, a bunch of unexpected twists, great writing. I totally lost myself in this book' John Boyne, author of The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas
