Overview

Let's meet in The Mother Hood - because we were never meant to do it alone. What happens when motherhood isn't what you expect? When it's not instinctual and feels impossible to handle on your own? Saffi, Lena, and Violet's friendship is a source of comfort as they navigate the daily joys and frequent trials of early motherhood. They rant over lukewarm coffee at the playground. Their group chat is a never-ending stream of questions. But behind the supportive emojis and shared snacks, each woman is quietly unravelling. Saffi struggles to balance work, family, and her relationship-until an unexpected attraction forces her to confront what she truly wants. Lena, a stay-at-home mother of one, yearns for more children. Her growing envy impacts who she is as a parent, partner, and friend. Violet cruises through pregnancy only to be blindsided by the isolating fog of postnatal depression, struggling to bond with the baby she thought she was ready for. The friendship has survived despite the women's differences, but will they support each other as life becomes ever more challenging? Or will the village they've built start to crumble? Vanessa De Carvalho's debut novel is perfect for fans of Sophie Kinsella and Marian Keyes. Word Count: 83,708 words
