Your best friend deserves the truth. But it will ruin her life. What would you do? It’s been over twenty years since four very different teenage girls sat on that beach at Goran Haven, and swore to be best friends forever. Their lives went different ways after Emily left. But each remembered that promise. And none truly found friendship like it again. Now, Emily’s back, with a secret she can’t face. She tries to hide away, take time to heal and make some difficult choices, but she runs into one of her old friends, and soon the four are reunited. Lolly, warm as ever, is a successful physiotherapist, married with kids. Yet smart, strong Amanda, who cherishes her teenage daughter, is alone and seemingly stuck in a dead-end job. And creative Jess is so much quieter than Emily remembers. The bond is still there, and Emily realises their friendship might keep her together, but there are reasons why the women fell out of touch. Secrets that have lain dormant for decades start to surface, and then one of the women discovers a betrayal so big, it could turn each of their lives upside down. It’s always those we’re closest to who have the power to tear us apart. Can friendship give Emily and her friends the strength to survive a devastating shock, or are some things unforgivable? Full of truths about friendship, marriage, and the relationships that define us, Her Best Friend’s Secret is a powerful, relatable and emotionally gripping novel for fans of Jojo Moyes, Diane Chamberlain, and The Silent Wife.

I thought falling in love with my best friend would be the biggest shock of my life. I couldn't have been more wrong... Coming back home with my tail between my legs after a bitter divorce and a failed business venture isn't exactly the life I'd envisioned for myself. At least there's Bennett. Strong and steady as always, even if there is a simmering anger in him that wasn't there when we were boys. When that anger finally boils over, I'm braced for a fight, but what I get instead... is a kiss. A kiss that changes everything. But a surprise visit threatens the new life Bennett and I are beginning to build together. Now I'm faced with an impossible choice: Return to the safe, predictable life I'd always planned on with my ex-wife... Or take a chance on the unexpected love of a lifetime. * * * My Best Friend's Secret is a friends-to-lovers, bi-awakening romance set in the cozy little town of Fairlake. And while Adam and Bennett will have cameos in future stories, each book in this series can be read as a standalone.
