Loved it! The characters are so annoying in a reality show kind of way. I never ever saw the twist coming. Thoroughly enjoyed hating these characters. What is April’s deal with shoving desserts down everyone’s throats? Why do April and Julie say they’re best friends when they clearly hate each other? This book is so crazy and frustrating…in the best way! This is my eighth book by Queen Frieda and this one definitely ranks at the top.

Content: frequent mild cussing, a couple F bombs, a handful of taking the Lord’s name in vain. No graphic sexual content or disturbing violence.
