Fiction. Literature. Suspense. Thriller. HTML:What if you found out that your family isn??t yours at all? How far would you go to protect them? A gripping new psychological thriller from the bestselling author of The Girl Before. . . .

??[JP] Delaney takes domestic suspense beyond its comfort zone.???Marilyn Stasio, The New York Times Book Review

Pete Riley answers the door one morning and lets in a parent??s worst nightmare. On his doorstep is Miles Lambert, a stranger who breaks the devastating news that Pete??s son, Theo, isn??t actually his son??he is the Lamberts??, switched at birth by an understaffed hospital while their real son was sent home with Miles and his wife, Lucy. For Pete, his partner Maddie, and the little boy they??ve been raising for the past two years, life will never be the same again.
 
The two families, reeling from the shock, take comfort in shared good intentions, eagerly entwining their very different lives in the hope of becoming one unconventional modern family. But a plan to sue the hospital triggers an official investigation that unearths some disturbing questions about the night their children were switched. How much can they trust the other parents??or even each other? What secrets are hidden behind the Lamberts?? glossy front door? Stretched to the breaking point, Pete and Maddie discover they will each stop at nothing to keep their family safe.

The premise of this book intrigued me. Can two families actually make this sort of arrangement work? Are there hidden agendas? Reading this book, it is in someways easy to figure out what is going to happen, but the means taken to get there are downright stunning as to what lengths people are capable of going to in order to get what they want. The end result is also typical however it is not the end of the story. It was definitely enough to keep me turning the pages anxious for it all to come together. ( )

Playing Nice or just Playing?

J.P Delany books are one of the few books on any book platform that I recommend to anyone without even needing to think. If You love thrillers or an outside of the box concept these books are truly for you. I started my reading love with The Girl Before and never really stopped. Now lets talk about Playing Nice. The story begins with Pete and his partner Maddie have an adorable and precocious (get into everything) son named Theo. Pete is a stay at home dad after his job as a freelance reporter disappears. Miles and Lucy Lambert are the wealthy parents of little David, not precocious, in fact barely aware of his surroundings. Pete and Maddie don’t believe any of this until they decide they go to the home of the Lamberts and meet David.
After meeting they make a pact not only to try and have a good relationship for the sake of the kids but also to make an alliance against the hospital who made the mistake. The more pages I turned the more I realized that I wasn’t sure if the hospital had made a mistake or there was another evil entity that is at play here. I love the couple dynamic that occurs with Maddie and Pete. I also have a soft spot for both kids they are innocent in this whole story. This was a very good slow burn book for me. It gave me the creeps and was layered with deception and questions all the way through. I want to apologize to NetGalley and everyone involved in my delay with this review I did actually finish it in July just never realized my review never went through. Hands down a five star review I can not wait to see what is next. ( )

Did not care for psychological baby switch storyline. After a few chapters, I had to put it down. ( )

3.5 great suspenseful, psychological thriller ( )

I adore how this left some ambiguities open at the end making it feel even more thought-provoking. This has some fascinating insights into psychopathy (what does it say that I related more to the women here than the men...) and a really interesting thought experiment about what it means to be a parent and to love a child, and what makes family.

Then spake the woman whose the living child was unto the king, for her bowels yearned upon her son, and she said, O my lord, give her the living child, and in no wise slay it. But the other said, Let it be neither mine nor thine, but divide it.
