The blurb:
Meet Pippa…
After years of trying and a failed IVF attempt,
Pippa is thrilled to see two little lines appear on a pregnancy test. Finally a
precious baby to call her own. This is all Pippa has ever wanted…if only
husband Jason could show just a little excitement.
Imogen…
A baby is the icing on the cake for Imogen and
Alice – proof that their love for each other can overcome any obstacle. But
when Imogen starts receiving malicious texts, it's clear that not everyone is
thrilled about the girls' good news.
And Ellie…
A drunken one-night stand and Ellie's life is
ruined! Pregnant, jobless and the relationship with her best friend, Chris,
over- forever. Because Chris just happens to be the father of Ellie's baby…and
potentially the love of her life!
For these first time mums the road to motherhood
is bumpier than most!
My Opinion:
*Book provided by the publisher on NetGalley
in exchange for an honest review*
Three women, three lives,
three personalities, but they have one thing in common: they are pregnant!
Pippa is excited to finally
be pregnant, her husband Jason however, doesn’t seem to happy about it.
Imogen and Alice are happy
to complete their family with a little baby. Alice’s parents are really
supportive of their relationship and the pregnancy, but Imogen’s mum is not
thrilled.
A night with her best friend
Chris and Ellie is pregnant, not what they both wanted, it just makes
everything more awkward.
It was interesting to follow
their journeys. They all were in very different situations and I was very
curious to find out more for all three of them. they all meet at the club, Ellie's sister Zoe organizes and get to share their story and we of course see how everything develops during their pregnancies.
The fact that it's so different for all of them, but they are going through the same thing and they meet each other, creates a wonderful storyline. I found all three parts of the story interesting, but I was most curious about Ellie's situation.
The book is about friendship, love, family and of course pregnancy. Lucie Wheeler created a lovely atmosphere around the characters and I loved the ladies as individuals. In the end however, it's all their stories put together in a clever way and I really enjoyed reading the book.
I absolutely adore the idea behind the story and Lucie Wheeler has done a brilliant job, such a talented lady.
Lucie's writing is engaging, funny, fresh and just has a unique voice! A fabulous debut novel, I want more!
