The book opens ominously-with a prologue informing us of a crime scene that has been razed.īut, destroying it couldn’t stop an eleven year old from discovering what had once happened at the former 19472 Pacific Coast Highway address. This was a 5 ⭐️ for a couple of my GR friends who often share my taste! Sadly for me, it was just a 3⭐️ read. Thank you to Thomas & Mercer and NetGalley for an ARC in exchange for an honest review.Įvery book needs an Outlier-and I guess it’s my turn! It’s juicy and delicious.addicting and darkly fun.Ĥ.5 stars rounded up. I couldn’t stop reading this book until the last page. I planned to stop and watch a movie I’d been eager to see.

The tension builds evenly and with much welcomed snark ( I’m a sucker for snark).īOTTOM LINE: Although it’s not necessarily groundbreaking, I was hooked like an ornament. This is in thanks to author Kate Myles and her remarkable writing style. In a familiar trope, the characters and situations they go through are complex and mostly original. I’m not going to lie.I thought this would be a standard thriller. Place your bet on who will be victorious in the end. Unfortunately for her, Chloe is unhinged.Seriously damaged and deranged. After Emily finds out she’s pregnant, she decides that enough is enough.and plans to end up on top after the dumpster fire that is her life is extinguished. They are a powerful couple who make loads of money.Įmily finds out that Doug is having intimate relations with his receptionist, Chloe. He’s a cheater and a liar, and manipulates her time and time again. She’s a BOSS and she is in charge, except when it comes to her relationship with her douchebag husband, Doug. YASSS!! After a slight reading slump, I am happily surprised to find a winner with this saucy gem!Įmily is a very powerful talent agent.
