About this listen

My child means everything to me. But saving his life means destroying my best friend’s family….

I didn’t plan to fall pregnant, but when I found out, I was overjoyed. Even though I’d be going it alone, I swore I’d give my baby everything they needed.

But I didn’t know who the man I met on that sweltering summer night, the father of my child, really was.

I decided to keep his secret to protect the innocent…but then my beautiful baby was born with a rare illness, desperately needing a transplant.

Now, as I gaze into my son’s wide and trusting eyes, I know the choice I have to make: For the sake of my precious little boy, I have to destroy my friend’s happiness.

But when the truth comes out, what if saving my baby means losing him forever?

Fans of Liane Moriarty, Amanda Prowse and Susan Lewis will love The Dilemma.

"Fabulous… Brilliant and heartbreaking… The twist was just OMG… I just couldn’t read it fast enough. I wanted to finish it quickly but at the same time I never wanted it to end… Just stunning." (Postcard Reviews)

"Reduced me to tears… the definition of a page-turner and a tear-jerker. I didn’t want to stop reading… I loved every word." (The Book Lover’s Boudoir)

"Wow!… one of the saddest and most heartbreaking reads I've encountered… My gosh! This book should really come with a box of tissues because believe me, you are going to need them!... I cannot tell you how much I loved this book." (Confessions of a Bookaholic)
