The day comes for Cherry to leave... But she spins off another lie saying her boss has told her to use all her holidays. Naughton has written a very clever, a diabolically clever, novel. The Girlfriend has it all - crime, drama, mystery, suspense, secrets, suspicions and lies. Lies that the liar believes. . .

The Girlfriend is a character-driven, domestic thriller that delves into the embattled relationship that can occur between a mother and her son's significant other when they're both ruthlessly determined to be the most important woman in his life.

This is a book you will start and be prepared you won't want to drag yourself away from. I stayed with it until I finished it the early hours of this morning. But Jennifer has a plan. To keep your friends close...and your enemies closer. Sara is up to something, of that she is sure. But what, she is yet to find out. However, this is only the beginning of her troubles...because things are about to get even worse...a whole lot worse!

I like a book that draws me in with just a few chapters. This book has it and it got me hooked. I didn't even expect to finish it sooner due to my reading slump. I get easily bored and distracted but I kept reading.

This book has multiple point of view. At first it discouraged me since this type of point of view confuses me on what's going on. When I kept on reading I realise this helped clear up confusion and explains more on what's happening.
