The Perfect Plan

‘Riveting... heartfelt... suspenseful. A must-read. Fans of Jodi Picoult and Liane Moriarty will find much to admire.’ Reader review, 5 stars

When Fabiola offers to be a surrogate for her best friend Liz, it seems like the perfect plan. Liz gets the baby she’s always wanted, and Fabiola gets to help someone she dearly loves. 

But then one impulsive decision threatens to shatter their decades-long friendship and change all their lives forever.

Some mistakes can’t be undone, and as Fabiola desperately tries to work out how to do the right thing – by her friend, by her family, by herself – she realises she has nowhere to turn. With her marriage beginning to implode, her teenage daughter increasingly distant, and her beloved dad no longer by her side, her secret feels like a ticking time bomb.

Fabiola knows she must find the courage to rely on the very people she’s hurt most. But family isn't always what you expect it to be, and sometimes life’s most difficult moments lead, unexpectedly, to its greatest gifts.

A deeply moving and unforgettable exploration of motherhood, friendship, and the complex choices women make in the name of love, perfect for fans of Jodi Picoult, Lucinda Berry and Liane Moriarty.
