Guess what? Your son is not your son. He was switched at birth. But we want to work all this out amicably, k?”
Yeah… 😏 That’s my synopsis.
If you’re like me, you’d be like, “What the whaaaaaaat?”
Yup, Pete and Maddie are living this. The Lamberts enter the picture, delivering the news that they are the biological parents of Theo while Pete and Maddie’s biological child is THEIR child David. (Head scramble). Pete and Maddie are then thrust into a bizarre situation, navigating unknown parental terrain as they sue the hospital that did this and try to adjust to this shocking, life-altering news, working along with the Lamberts because that’s in everyone’s best interest right? (Right?) But are the Lamberts the kind couple they project or is there something more sinister afoot? What secrets might be uncovered as their worlds are shaken to the core?
My thoughts: SUMMER HIT! This is the one I couldn’t put down. It made me angry, sad, scared, surprised… allllll the feels and I’m kid-free and it still punched me in the gut. The plot
is so cliche but Delaney adeptly adds the unexpected making for an amazing summer thriller. Had I merely read the description, I might have thought “meh”. Don’t do that! This is one you can’t and won’t put down!
