The Surrogate Mother

About the book

Abby and Sam are a couple living in a small town who have struggled with years of unsuccessful infertility treatments to have a child. They eventually hire Monica, a young woman from their community, to act as their surrogate. Once the pregnancy begins, Abby becomes increasingly suspicious of Monica’s history and hidden motives.
