Magpie / Elizabeth Day.
When their new lodger, Kate, becomes obsessed with her, her husband, and the baby, they are desperately trying to conceive, Marisa must find out who Kate really is before she loses everything she's worked so hard to create--her perfect romance, her perfect family, and her perfect self.
Marisa and Jake are a perfect couple. Their new lodger, Kate, and her rent payments will give them the income they need to start trying for a baby. Sure, Kate doesn't seem to care about personal boundaries and is occasionally overly familiar with Jake. But as Jake and Marisa are put through months of fertility treatments and false starts, Kate's boundary-pushing turns into an all-out obsession. Why does she seem to know everything about Marisa and Jake? In her quest to find out who Kate really is, Marisa might destroy everything she has worked so hard to create: her perfect romance, her perfect family, and her perfect self. -- Adapted from jacket.
