Pete and Maddie are shocked when a man appears on their doorstep to tell them that Theo is not really their son. There was a mix-up in the NICU at the hospital and now Theo looks like the man who came to their door. Miles and Lucy have been raising David under the assumption that he is their son. But it is clear that he has Maddie's eyes. They have come to an agreement that allows them all to see their biological sons, but keep custody of the child they know to be their son. It seems too good to be true. Pete and Maddie are a little overwhelmed by Miles and Lucy. They are rich and generous and are terrified that Miles and Lucy will take their son. And then everything changes. Miles and Lucy file a lawsuit to get custody of both boys, leaving Pete and Maddie in the ultimate battle.
Playing Nice is the tale of every parent's worst nightmare. They love their son unconditionally and their world is rocked when they discover that Theo is not their son. From the very beginning, I just knew that Miles was going to be a problem. He was arrogant and controlling. But I also felt that Pete and Maddie kind of let things escalate. They were far too trusting of this man they had just met. You could see how Miles was setting Pete up for something. The end came out of nowhere, I was left speechless by what happened.

Bottom Line - With each book, I am becoming a bigger fan of JP Delaney. His thrillers are smart and terrifying. Playing Nice is no different. A fast-paced thriller that will leave you saying "WOW."
