About So Thrilled For You:
An intense heatwave. A high-stakes baby shower. Will it all end in tears?
The Little Women: Nicki, Lauren, Charlotte and Steffi. Friends since university, they are now in their thirties and life is pulling them in different directions. Until a baby shower invite arrives...
Reunited on a sweltering hot summer’s day, tensions rise quickly as the friendship group reveal what is pulling them all apart...
STEFFI: powerhouse literary agent who is happily child-free but feeling judged by her friends
CHARLOTTE: desperate to conceive yet intent on organising the ‘perfect’ baby shower for her friend
LAUREN: who is finding motherhood far, far worse than she imagined
NICKI: who never wanted a baby shower and is holding onto secrets from the past
Can their friendship survive the high-pressure event and the subsequent police investigation, as a fire starts?
