Her Daughter by Jen Craven

Two friends since high school and still friends, but one wishing she had what the other had.

What might make it worse is that Rachel’s daughter finds out she is pregnant, but she tells her mother’s friend, Monica, instead and asks Monica to not tell her mother yet.


Monica feels terrible because she and Rachel have never kept secrets from each other.


We follow all the characters in this emotional, character-driven novel with all characters having current and past secrets.


The secrets and betrayals brought to light how they can destroy friendships and families.


This book is for women's fiction fans and those readers who enjoy family drama.


HER DAUGHTER isn't a book I normally read, but it turned out to be one I enjoyed even though I guessed one of the secrets.  4/5


Thank you to the publisher for a copy of this book.  All opinions are my own.
