I was a bit sceptical about another Lesley Pierce novel as they are all much of the sameness. Bad girl makes good! This did not disappoint. However I quite enjoyed it. It kept my interest although I got a bit mixed up with all different names she kept calling herself and all her male partners.
by Caroline Loftus
It could happen to any one of us. You believe in something only to find. out it’s completely different. It’s been an interesting book which held my attention.

I used to read all books by Lesley Pearse years ago but stopped for some years. I saw this advertised on Amazon and purchased it and I couldn’t put it down. I have re-elected my liking for her books and will continue to read them from now on. Do try her books. They are gritty but gripping!

Sorry I have not read it yet, still reading another book, but if it is like her other book I read then it should be good
