What a ride. I really enjoyed being able to read and review this series. I liked being able to follow all the characters along to see where they all went.

Girl on the run follows Jane who is hiding out after a rather public break up. She's trying to set herself up a new life away from the limelight. Can see do it or will it all follow her?

Out of the Series, I think this is the book I least enjoyed. It was still good but I just couldn't relate to the characters as much.

All the books I guess could be read alone as they do slightly explain who everyone is in the books but obviously if you like me read them all in order and in the series you will understand how everyone connects better.

I liked each book for all different reasons. I think my favourite out of them is Girl Having a Ball closely followed by Girl at Christmas.

Girl on the Run - Rhoda Baxter

I received an advance review copy for free thanks to Rachel's Random Resources and I am leaving this review voluntarily

Outrunning her past was never going to be easy …

A job in a patent law firm is a far cry from the glamorous existence of a popstar’s girlfriend. But it’s just what Jane Porter needs to distance herself from her cheating ex, Ashby, and the press furore that surrounds the wreckage of her love life.

In a new city with a new look Jane sets about rebuilding her confidence, and after Ashby’s betrayal, she resolves that this will be something she does alone.

This is the first book in the Smart Girls series and the first book I have read by Rhoda - but not the last. I enjoyed the way that the narrative was accompanied by emails and texts to give a different perspective. This is an entertaining read, with Jane having to learn to trust people again.

This was a feel-good, quick read for me and it was a nice change to see a character wanting to avoid the limelight. I will quickly be moving onto the next book in the series.

Rating: 4/5
