Story
It’s the moment single-mum Kate has been dreading. With her only daughter, Chloe, about to leave home, she’s terrified by the prospect of an empty nest. That is until she meets charming lawyer Adam. He could be the perfect catch - if it wasn’t for his clingy son. Because Ben has a crush on Chloe. A crush that is fast becoming an obsession. Flattered by the attention, Chloe is happy to string him along - for now at least. But Kate can see the danger signs, even if her daughter can't.

Story
Kate has always dreamed of a life in music. And now she's finally done something about it–giving up her steady job, moving to the city to enrol in a degree program at a prestigious college. Needing a place to live, she answers an ad and moves in with Amy who seems a nice lady–mothering and protective. At first Kate is glad to have some support in this strange city, but gradually Amy's presence becomes more and more stifling–it just seems so hard to get away from her.

Tamsin recently married renowned composer Robin Featherstone. Robin is much older, but Tamsin doesn’t care—she’s in love. And she knows Robin loves her too, even if he is very close to another young woman—his assistant, Mia.

Then, when Robin suddenly dies, the family’s worst fears are realized: Tamsin stands to inherit everything. But when the will is read, its contents are beyond shocking.

The promise you made.
Rose is depicted as a very very clever woman, a woman with gumption. An inspirational read. other than the murders of course, she is a well written force to be reckoned with.
It's 5 stars from me.

Predictable
I love Lisa Jewel’s books and this came up as a recommendation as a similar read but I agree with the other reviewers who said it was predictable and that the characters were unlikable. I was bored. It wasn’t the worst book I’ve read (heard) but I wouldn’t recommend it.
I also hate any form of animal cruelty and it was unnecessary as it didn’t add anything to the story.
The narrator was good.
