Isobel is planning her dream wedding while trying to level up in her career with a promotions she's long been vying for, when a video of her Fiance cheating goes viral and she sees it for the first time on Live TV. Never fear, the Stiletto Sisterhood is here! Priya, Isobel, Caitlin, Shayne, and Eshe are best friends, but sisters by choice and have sworn a vow to "Chase Dreams not Drama", when Isobel's devastating news is captured for the world to see, the sister band together to help and pick her back up. With a found family, Sisterhood of Travelling Pants (in this case, Stiletto's) kind of vibe, this story of female friendship was filled with witty remarks and funny sarcasm to boot.
I really wanted to love this book but there were many components that I felt were missing that I just couldn't ignore. What I did love about this book was the representation of strong female friendship, the bond between these women was entertaining and enjoyable to read. That said, there were a number of unbelievable parts of the story, for example one of the women being a Royal? Also, this story mainly follows the lives of Isobel and Priya while leaving out a fair amount about the rest of the ladies in the sisterhood. My rating would be higher if the fluff in the storyline would have been filled with more of the lives of the other sisters. Overall I enjoyed the narration of this book, it kept me engaged but I don't think I would have been so intrigued if I would have read a physical copy. If you enjoyed The Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants, you will likely enjoy this book as it definitely is an attempt at a grown up version.
