trust him, can’t she? At least he’ll have his brother there, to keep him in line…
THE BROTHER: Jamie is the prodigal child, back in the family fold again after years of travelling abroad. But when he gets to the villa, he’s not alone. He’s brought a wife, someone none of them have met before.
THE SISTER-IN-LAW: Ella is everything Clare isn’t. Glamorous. Young. Influential. But she knows a secret about Clare. Something that has the power to break the whole family apart.
And there’s someone who will do whatever it takes to make sure that this deep secret never comes to the surface.
An utterly unputdownable, gripping, twisty psychological thriller, perfect for fans of Before I Go To Sleep, The Girl on the Train and Date Night.

I loved writing First Date. As an author who also writes romantic comedies, I wanted to explore how something that seems on the surface like the perfect romance can, when peeled back, be rotten inside. My editor came up with the idea of a woman meeting her perfect man on a dating app. and discovering on their first date they share the same likes and dislikes even the same dreams. It seems almost too good to be true– but in psychological-thriller style, it isn’t long before happiness fades and darkness creeps in.
So if you go online dating, I wish you every success, and I hope it leads to wonderful earth-shattering love, and a big happily ever after. But don’t be swept away too quickly, think of Hannah, and always remember, if it seems too good to be true, it usually is…
I hope you loved First Date and, if you did, I would be very grateful if you could write a review. I’d love to hear what you think, and reviews make such a difference helping new readers to discover one of my books for the first time.
I love hearing from readers, so please say hello! You can get in touch on my Facebook page, through Twitter, Goodreads or my website.
‘Sometimes we can’t see what’s right in front of us, Kat. Everyone has secrets, even the people we love, the people we live with…’
Kat remembers the days when her only daughter Amy wouldn't leave her side. Amy was the baby who cried when you walked out of the room, the toddler who was too shy to speak to strangers, the small child who clung to Kat's legs in the school playground.
But now Amy is grown up, and Amy is gone – to university in a town several hours away. Kat's house – which once felt too full, too noisy, too busy – is deathly quiet, and Kat awaits the daily phone call to tell her that her beloved daughter is thriving and happy.
But one day Amy doesn’t call. Kat’s husband and friends think she is being paranoid – surely Amy is just out, having fun with her friends. But Kat knows right away that something is very wrong. Her daughter would never forget to call. She would never just disappear... After all, Amy has nothing to run from. Or does she?
A gripping and suspenseful psychological thriller with more twists and turns than a rollercoaster. Fans of The Wife Between Us, The Girl
