From #1 New York Times bestselling author Freida McFadden comes a story of monstrous motherhood. She gave you a life. Now she wants yours.

She was promised a miracle. She got more than she bargained for.

Abby wants a baby more than anything.

But after years of failed infertility treatments and adoptions that have fallen through, it seems like motherhood is not in her future.

That is, until her personal assistant Monica makes a generous offer to serve as a surrogate. It's an offer that will make all of Abby's dreams come true.

But soon, strange things start happening. And it turns out Monica isn't who she says she is. The woman now carrying Abby's child has an unspeakable secret.

And she will stop at nothing to get what she wants.

#1 New York Times bestselling author Freida McFadden delivers a page turner that will redefine what it means to be in the family way...
