Cassie thinks she has met the perfect man.

Joel is sweet, handsome, romantic, and best of all, he’s crazy about Cassie. She thinks she’s found the guy she’ll spend the rest of her life with. Have children with. Grow old with.

Yes, she knows about his perfect ex-girlfriend, Francesca. The beautiful, brilliant chef, beloved by all his friends. But she thinks Francesca is out of the picture. She thinks Francesca is gone for good.

Think again, Cassie.

Entertaining

Overall I enjoyed this book but it did get a little confusing toward the end. I had to relisten to certain parts to understand who was who and to differentiate between past and present.

Well that was unexpected

Wow that was better than I expected. Great story and narrator. I was not expecting the twists.

Once again Freida tricked me!

The narrator was fabulous! This is when I wish a had a hard copy so I could go back and figure out the twists and turns.

A Pleasant listen, beautifully read

This is a pretty silly chic book, redeemed by masterful reading.
Nicol Zanzarella does a splendid job giving life to the characters. She reads with intelligence and nuance.

Confusing

It started out great. But as more women were added to the plot, it became harder and harder to hear any differences in voices, and the women going in and out of the plot.

Sorry… I wouldn’t recommend it

A Twisty Thriller

Up until the last minute you will have no idea who's behind everything. This story had so many twists, it made my head dizzy in a good way. Definitely can recommend.

Love it. Didn’t see the twists that came.

Love the story. I didn’t predict any of the twists and enjoyed to the last word.

Confusing

I found this difficult to follow. Although I enjoy stories by this author I found this story difficult to follow as an audiobook.

Wanders

The story wanders too much. Characters are somewhat believable. Coincidences are not realistic. Some parts are gripping.

All over the place fatal attraction

This is one book you won’t figure out. There was so much stuff going on that it was hard to keep up. I couldn’t stop listening because it was so interesting and intriguing. Nicol did a great job with narration for both male and female characters. Will have to find more books similar to this one that Nicol narrates.
