Book Information
When Julia’s husband leaves her, and their small son Matty, to live with another woman, her friends, especially Caroline and Vick, rally round to help. But when Julia starts a new relationship, after a chance meeting, her friends are not quite as supportive.
Julia sees Brendan, the quietly spoken IT guy who comes round to fix her computer, as a loving and protective man and, as time passes, a potential father figure for Matty. Caroline and Vick, on the other hand, see him as jealous, controlling and potentially dangerous. He appears to be a man with a secret past.
What her friends don’t know is that Julia has secrets of her own which, if they get out, will almost certainly shatter her fragile domestic bliss.
Landsliding is a compelling drama that turns your expectations on their head with a subtle twist that will leave you wondering where your sympathies lie

My Review
5☆ A Twisty, Highly Compelling, Gripping, Domestic Thriller, I Couldn't Put Down!
Julia's hubby Harry of 17yrs just walked out and left. Leaving behind their 6yr old son Matty. All that was left was a note.
Julia, Caroline and Vicky became best of friends when their children became friends at school.
When Harry left Julia they became her rock as did their husbands.
Brendan is the new man in Julia's life. They came to meet when her laptop broke and she called his number from an advert and he came round to fix it. But something
seemed off with Brendan. Almost too good to be true!
Caroline & Vicky were suspicious of him and thought it was moving too fast.
Brendan made it very clear he wanted them to have nothing more to do with Julia even accusing Vicky husband of an obsession with Julia. Causing them to fall out!
He's obsession and possessive behaviour should of been ringing alarm bells for Julia but she was so needy and frightened that Matty needed a Male Figure in his life, she just brushed off Brendan's erratic behaviour!
But there was Something very creepy about Brendan... how he was taking over with Matty, worming his way into the father figure he craves.
Making Julia and Matty reliant on him.. Brendan can hardly believe his luck meeting Julia — attractive, kind, caring, a great Mum, vulnerable and most of all he loves Matty!
Landsliding is a down as a commercial Women's Fiction, but I think it's more like a Twisty domestic thriller!
That was almost written in a interview/statement kind of way. Told in several points of view, which was perfect for this style of writing.
I loved the characters, they were so complex but oh so compelling.
There are plenty of juicy twists, dark secrets, lots of intrigue and unease I loved it!
It's a Pacy read that held my attention the whole way through, I was completely engrossed as the plot thickened so did my intrigue.
I can't recommend reading Landsliding enough!
