About this listen

A Reese Witherspoon book club pick!

Perfect for fans of Freida McFadden, Lisa Jewell and Shari Lapena

How far would you go to make all your dreams come true?

Amber Patterson is tired of being a nobody: an invisible woman who melts into the background. She deserves more. She deserves a life of wealth, luxury and leisure.

Daphne Parrish is the golden girl of Bishops Harbor, Connecticut. With her model looks, her picture-perfect mansion and her millionaire husband, Jackson, she has everything Amber wants.

Amber’s envy could eat her alive—if she didn't have a plan. Before long, she has become Daphne’s closest friend, and is catching the eye of Jackson. But a skeleton from her past could destroy everything, and if discovered, Amber’s well-laid plan may end in disaster…

I am not sure why such a slow robotic voice was chosen to do the first part of the narration. I tried 5x overal several months before I finally decided to commit a few days ago. So happy that the second narrator had a lovely voice. I knew the plot / twist as it has been done before but enjoyed it nevertheless. Am listening to the 2nd book now.

Took me forever to get into it bc of robotic voice

The retelling of the stories from different perspectives made I try a chilling narrative with a very satisfying conclusion. A bit racier than I prefer but a great story. I didn't like the party one performance as much as part two as I found the narrator's part robotic.

One tale two tellings

Couldn’t stop listening to it. A really fantastic story, suspenseful. Highly recommend! The voice at times was a little slow for me, but maybe that’s because I was eager to hear what was about to happen.

Fantastic!

I really enjoyed this book. I am disappointed that the whole storyline and plot was basically copied by another author A few years later. I actually wish I had read this one first as it was the better of the two.

Great story
