Three Sides to Every Story: an emotional, unputdownable story of friendship and second chances

Three women. One life-changing secret. Will honesty bind them together or tear them apart?

Single mother Charlie can barely pay the rent, never mind give her son the chances he deserves. Desperate to escape mounting debt, she enters into a surrogacy deal with a stranger. It will solve all her problems, won’t it?

High-flying Suzie is used to getting what she wants. Yet her biggest dream of being a mother is beyond her grasp. So when a chance for happiness comes her way in the shape of Charlie, why shouldn’t she take it?

Meanwhile, Dawn, Suzie’s steadfast university friend, is discovering that finding her mojo is about as hard as finding a good-fitting bra. What has happened to her sex life? Is finding the missing lid of a Tupperware box the biggest thrill she can expect? She thinks not.

As Charlie’s pregnancy progresses, the women’s lives grow increasingly intertwined, revealing old betrayals and hidden connections. At a pivotal celebration, long-held secrets threaten their fragile unity—but also offer the possibility of forgiveness and fresh starts.

Perfect for fans of Jojo Moyes and Marian Keyes, this is a powerful story of friendship, motherhood, and second chances.
