About this listen

Every desperate housewife wants an alias. Donna Stone has one - and it happens to be government-sanctioned.

But Donna earned it the hard way: Her husband was killed the day she delivered their third child.

To avenge her husband's murder, Donna leads a secret life as an assassin.

But espionage makes for strange bedfellows, and brings new meaning to that old adage, "Honey, I'm home...."

Betrayal times two

What an adventure. I wish real life was so exciting! Poor Donna has been betrayed so many times by the one she loved and still...
I liked the way Brown has approached this as a 'guide for good housewives' something out of Stepford or the 1950s. But then the twist of an assassin mother who juggles love, life, danger and her children.
The narrator was a perfect choice, sounding exactly like a 1950s tv ad for the perfect life.
It is a pity the rest of the series is not available on Audible.

Fun adventure

Like the style and light enough to consume in one reading. The audio book was well presented and I really liked the commercials. Would like to read another by this author. My only complaint is that it was a bit pat and could use more tension but as a light read it was great.

Family life can be murder

Any additional comments?

I really enjoyed this book and had to get it as an audiobook too.Donna is a stay at home single mum (well with an absent husband, she might as well be one) .......well that's what everybody thinks but Donna has a secret (- I would tell you but then she would probably have to kill me.) and when her boss places a new agent in her house to play the missing husband She has to play the roll of her life not only to convince the snobby mum's but also the children that daddy is home . All the while saving the world from terrorist and making sure her daughter's 1st daddy and daughter school dance goes off without a hitch. Simple right?

I just loved this book and hope the rest of the books in the series get added to Audible as I will definitely be buying them if and when they come out.
