About this listen

From New York Times and USA Today best-selling author Shanora Williams comes a tale of revenge served ice cold - and a warning to be careful what you scheme for....

A brutal tragedy ended Ivy Hill’s happy family and childhood. Now in her 20s and severely troubled, she barely has a life - or much to live for. Until the day she discovers the name of the woman who destroyed her world: Lola Maxwell - the mega-wealthy socialite with a heart, Miami’s beloved “first lady” of charity. Accomplished, gorgeous, and oh-so-caring, Lola has the best of everything - and doesn’t deserve any of it. So it’s only right that Ivy take it all away....

Little by little, Ivy infiltrates Lola’s elite circle, becomes her new best friend - and plays Lola’s envious acquaintances and hangers-on against her. But seducing Lola’s handsome, devoted surgeon husband turns into a passionate dream Ivy suddenly can’t control. And soon, an insidious someone will twist Ivy’s revenge into a nightmare of deception, secrets, and betrayal that Ivy may not wake up from....

Avid reader Jean

The absolutely talented narrator was such a clever actress too. The story was very good if a bit long winded.

Different, but about 2 hours to long

It was an OK Book with a different take on a thriller, unfortunately it was really drawn out in places and slowed down to large amounts of time where nothing seemed to happen would have been better 20% shorter.

The story line was great but…

I constantly kept being brought out of the story with the repetition. It’s quite annoying really and personally ruined the book for me. The premise is great though
